Episode 14 — The Storms, the Miracle, and the Master
In Matthew 14 (WEB) tragedy and glory meet. John the Baptist is executed by Herod. Jesus withdraws to grieve, yet compassion overflows as He feeds the 5,000 with five loaves and two fish. That night He walks on the water, calling Peter to step out in faith. At Gennesaret, people touch the fringe of His garment and are healed. This chapter calls us to trust Jesus in loss, offer what we have, pray in solitude, and keep our eyes on the One who says, “Take courage. It is I. Do not be afraid.”
