"Peter Stepped Out of the Boat. Should You?" by Glenn Martin

2026-10-0342:19

Strength to Strength welcomed Glenn Martin to revisit a familiar story recorded in the Gospels.Matthew recounts Jesus walking on the troubled waters to the disciples in the boat; perhaps more astounding, Peter famously stepped out of the boat to walk to Jesus, too.Though everyone acknowledges that this story has a lesson to teach us, what is that lesson? Most commonly, Peter is commended for his courage to step out of the boat; we are encouraged to learn from Peter to keep our eyes on Jesus—not the circumstances around us—to prevent us from sinking. But is that view supported by the text? In this presentation, Glenn Martin challenges this view and offers a different conclusion.An interactive question-and-answer period follows.

S2S Sisters: "The Power of the Hidden Woman" by Patty Miller

2026-09-1501:23:21

September 12, 2026.Strength to Strength Sisters welcomed Patty Miller to discuss the behind-the-scenes experience of one who supports others’ ministries.Serving from behind—what does that mean in today’s world of women’s rights and strident individualism? A woman of God has value and merit in the eyes of God regardless of her place in society or degree of visibility. Instead of oppressing women, Christianity gave women freedom and dignity that was unknown in the culture of the day. This responsibility comes with instructions on how to use this strength in a Christlike way, from a specific position in relation to Christ, His Church, and the men who are our authority. When we occupy that position in its fullness, we find peace, joy, and fulfillment. The speaker will share biblical examples and personal experiences of serving God from behind.An interactive question-and-answer period follows.https://strengthtostrength.org/the-power-of-the-hidden-woman/
