Get Wright for Sunday

Sometimes God works in mysterious ways...and sometimes he is too practical for us. Pastor Wright, Vicar Leeper, and Vicar Hill all discuss Jesus walking on water, looking at why he did it and what it means for us. What if God's practical solutions are so direct, we would never come up with them ourselves?
