This week, we’re turning the tables! Our Communications Pastor Sandy Hughes normally helps put together the CPC Real Life Together Podcast from behind the scenes. But this week, she’s joining us in front of the mic!

    Quotables

    • “The sea came to symbolize for them the dark power of evil. Yeah. Threatening to destroy god's good creation, God's people, and God's purposes.”
  • “Following Jesus does not mean that the storms will never come. It isn't God removing us from circumstances.
  • “I, I think the big, the big thing is we know who to run to in the middle of it. Yeah. I mean, we may not understand why, but eventually, you see God at work doing something in your own life, in your own soul. Yeah. And he has this for a reason.”
  • I think about my life, in the middle of the storms. I really don't believe we're meant to go through those by ourselves. We can. We can choose to. But I think there's a piece of community that is so important.
  • “If there's anything I've learned about Jesus being Lord over the storm, he loves us. He's in it with us. He's big enough to handle your grief, your anger, and whatever emotions you're feeling. And if there's anything I've learned in my life, I can trust him.”
