Summary

The Vine continues in our series TAKE HEART by considering a story from Matthew 14:22-33. In this passage, we discover how our Savior invites us to walk upon the chaos of life while we take heart. www.thevineaustin.org REFLECTION QUESTION: 1. If you were to survey your thoughts, feelings or emotions, what are you bringing with you as you enter this gathering? 2. Recount what took place before Jesus walked on water in the beginning of chapter 14. What do you think Jesus was carrying in him before that moment? 3. Read Matt 14:22-27. What do you notice taking place? 4. Read verses 28-33. Why do you think Peter wanted to walk on water? What significance do you find in his sinking? 5. What do you make of Jesus’ words verse 31? 6. What has stayed with you from the sermon- either confusing, curious or encouraging? 7. This sermon touches on the power of fear. Where does fear exist in your life today? 8. What would it mean to keep your attention upon Jesus in that place of fear? Conclude by spending time in prayer, asking for God to help us take heart in the chaos in our world and lives.
