🔎 Ever feel like you're drowning in life's chaos? 🤔
Remember, Jesus isn't just here to protect us from life's storms—
He's here to make them powerless.
When He walked on water, He wasn't just showing off. 🌊
He was proving that death and fear have nothing on Him. đźš«
Picture this: the sea, which symbolizes chaos and uncertainty, becomes a sidewalk for Jesus.
He doesn't just walk by us in our struggles. ⤵️ ⤵️ ⤵️
He leads us through them.
Just like fishermen pull life from the depths of the ocean, Jesus pulls us from despair, flipping our fears into faith.
Think about baptism—it's where the deadly waters become a source of new life. 💦
Even in the face of death, Jesus stands with us, saying, "Take heart; it's me. Don't freak out." ✝️
As we deal with our own storms, let's remember the absolute truth that Jesus isn't just beside us; He's walking ahead of us too. 🌟

What is The Uncultured Saints?
We’re told the same thing over and over. Christianity doesn’t fit with today’s culture. The thing is, it isn’t the culture saying it. It’s the church. We’ve done a great job figuring out what we’re not. Sometimes we forget what we are. We’re the saints, washed in the blood of the lamb. We’re sinners Jesus made holy. This defines us. There are places Christianity doesn’t fit with today’s culture because Christianity isn’t bound by culture. We’re free in Christ to be uncultured. Not against it. Not apart from it. Undefined by it, because we’re defined by something greater. Join Pr. Goodman and Pr. Lietzau, the uncultured saints, as we tackle today’s issues through the lens of the Lutheran Confessions and find answers to today’s questions rooted in a timeless truth in Christ.
