This week, Pastor Joe's message is based on Acts 27.
Recap of Acts 27:1-20
Lessons in the “storms of life:”
-storms do not always come because of some disobedience (as with Jonah), but God sometimes allows us to go through storms. Paul was not disobedient, nor was he out of God’s will
-storms bring out what is inside, our true character
-in spite of storms God is still in control, furthering His purposes
-storms cannot separate us from the presence of God, in fact it is in storms that we can often more clearly see the presence, power and protection of God
-storms open the door to serve others, particularly non-believers (our journey through life is as much for others as for ourselves)
-storms open the door to witness
