Episode Synopsis "What manner of man is this? (Peace be Still)"
This is one of my favourite poems! I came across it on Facebook some years ago and I have loved it ever since. It recounts the story of how Jesus and His disciples encountered a raging storm as they crossed lake Galilee to the land of the Gadarenes (Mark 4:35-41). Aside the vivid description of the setting and the occurrences, it draws attention to how easily we get overwhelmed by what we see, forgetting the power of the God we serve. I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I have over the years. 😉 Background piano rendition of "Peace be Still" by Dan Musselman
