ABOUT THIS EPISODE
When Jesus lifted Peter out of the water, the storm didn’t stop right away.
In this episode of the Walk On Water series, Bethany Joy shares how we often walk back to the boat with Jesus while the waves are still crashing. Relationships can be restored, but the storms around us may still rage on.
Through her own real-life story of a speaking competition that didn’t go as planned, Bethany reveals how God uses unexpected outcomes to form deeper connections, guide our journey, and grow our trust in Him.
