"Lord, if it's you, tell me to come
to you on the water."
- Simon Peter
Peter may have been the first one out of the boat, but Jesus' invitation to walk on water is for us
all. But walk on water? What does that mean?
Walking on water means
- facing our fears and choosing not to let fear have the last word
- discovering and embracing the unique calling of God on our lives
- experiencing the power of God to accomplish what we would not be capable of
doing on our own.
This Zondervan Groupware helps you and your group answer Christ's call to greater faith,
power-filled deeds, and a new way of knowing him. Relating the story in Matthew 14 to life
today, teacher and best-selling author John Ortberg invites you to consider the incredible potential
that awaits you outside your comfort zones. Out on the risky waters of faith, Jesus is waiting to
meet you in ways that will change you forever, deepening your character and your trust in God.
These six remarkable, interactive sessions will teach you how to discern God's call, transcend fear,
risk faith, manage failure, and trust God.
What dormant gifts and dreams does God want to revive? What new visions does he want to
kindle? What practical acts of obedience does he want to challenge you with? Discover the
possibilites! Get to know Jesus as only a water-walker can, aligning yourselves with God's
purposes for your lives. There's just one requirement: if you want to walk on water, you've got to
get out of the boat.
