Bible Story: Jesus Calms the Storm

Read the story where Jesus Calms the Storm in your favorite Story Bible
or Mark 4:35-41.

This story about Jesus Calming the waves and winds is about fear, trust,
hope, and faith. Consider this story from the perspective of the disciples in
a place of fear and hope that Jesus would care for them.

Wonder about the story together:

• I wonder what it would have been like to be a disciple on the boat.

• I wonder what the disciples were thinking or feeling.
• I wonder if they felt hopeful that Jesus could save them.
• I wonder when you have been hopeful

• Reflection:
• Jesus silenced the wind and waves when his disciples were fearful for
their lives. Jesus may not silence the things we are fearful about (and
we have may real fears), but there are ways that we can bring hope into
our world. Talk about some of the ways your family can bring hope.
