Some of the most memorable moments in Jesus’ ministry happened near the water. Along the Sea of Galilee, ordinary people encountered Jesus in moments of fear, uncertainty, need, and change. In our summer series, Encounters by the Sea: Meeting Jesus at the Edge of the Waters, we’ll discover how Jesus still meets people at the edge of their lives and invites them into hope, healing, and deeper faith.
