Mark 4:35-41 – The Lord of the Storm

Feb 1, 2026    Tim Maton

When a violent storm threatens to sink the boat, Jesus sleeps, and the disciples panic. In this message from Mark 4:35-41, we explore what this dramatic moment reveals about who Jesus truly is, why fear so easily overwhelms us, and how faith grows in life’s storms.


Drawing connections to Creation, Jonah, the Psalms, the Cross, and the experience of the persecuted early church, this message shows that Jesus is not just a teacher, but God with authority over chaos itself. Through Jesus’ searching questions “Why are you so afraid?” and “Do you still have no faith?” we’re invited into intentional discipleship, learning to process life’s “storm moments” with repentance, trust, and action.


If you’re facing uncertainty, fear, or pressure, this message will encourage you to discover deeper faith, even when the waves are high.
