Description

Proximity. Noun. “nearness in place, time, order, occurrence, or relation; closeness.” Being in close proximity to the right people in the right situations makes all the difference. If you have a guard dog beside you when you walk through the woods at night, it makes a difference. If a mother visits her daughter when she feels alone and needs to talk to someone she can trust, it makes a difference. If a mentor comes alongside a younger friend while navigating tough issues and people at work, it makes a difference. Proximity to Christ is essential as we face difficulty and danger in life. This sermon (also released as a podcast episode) unpacks Mark 6:45-56, the dramatic story of Jesus walking on water, and his famous words to the fear-filled disciples: “Take heart; it is I. Do not be afraid.” What if in the midst of your own difficulties and dangers God had a specific word for you too? “Take heart; it is I. Do not be afraid.”
