About this listen

What if the storm in your life isn’t the real problem?

In Mark 4, the disciples panic as waves crash over their boat—but Jesus is asleep. When He calms the storm, something unexpected happens: their fear doesn’t disappear—it changes. The Bible uses two different words for fear: deilos and phobos. One shrinks you in cowardice. The other awakens awe.

This message explores how a true encounter with God transforms destructive fear into holy awe—and why small views of God always lead to big fear.

🔑 Key Takeaways:
  • The difference between deilos (paralyzing fear) and phobos (reverent awe)

  • Why storms reveal what we really believe about God

  • How awareness, the Word, and experience (A.W.E.) shape our faith

  • What the demon-possessed man in Mark 5 teaches us about authority and freedom

  • Why real encounters with Jesus leave us changed—not just calm

👉 The storm wasn’t the problem. The question was: Who is in your boat?
