A Fresh Look at the Familiar: Saved

{This work of fiction is based on the framework of Scripture found in Mark 4:35-41, Matthew 8:23-27, and Luke 8:22-25} {See also, Part 1, Part 2 Part 3} Andrew peeled his fingers off the oar, and examined his pruned and blistered hands. Why were we so afraid? He had no answer for Jesus. Water lapping against to boat shut him up. There was no danger now. The silvery moon relit the boat as the clouds dissipated. Peter untangled himself from the sail and dropped the soggy mass … [Read more...]

A Fresh Look at the Familiar: Silence

{This work of fiction is based on the framework of Scripture found in Mark 4:35-41, Matthew 8:23-27, and Luke 8:22-25} {Part 1, Part 2} Andrew couldn’t hear a thing over the howling wind and crashing waves. But he did see Jesus roll off the bench after Phillip shook him. Rain pounded the deck inside and collided with the waves outside. Andrew’s hands were  cramping from his failed attempts to steady the thrashing boat without breaking the oar Peter had abandoned to unrig the … [Read more...]

A Fresh Look at the Familiar: Fear

{This work of fiction is based on the framework of Scripture found in Mark 4:35-41, Matthew 8:23-27, and Luke 8:22-25} The wind ruffled the water and the sails began to flutter. Andrew, weary at the oars, cracked open one eye, and closed it again. There was little to see in the dark, but the moon lit up the little white crests starting to billow across the lake. When a gust of wind lashed him with the tail of a loose rope he snapped awake. “Peter?” he called to his brother, half … [Read more...]

A Fresh Look at the Familiar: Led

{This work of fiction is based on the framework of Scripture found in Mark 4:35-41, Matthew 8:23-27, and Luke 8:22-25} The sun was setting, and the crowd was hungry. Jesus’s voice was growing hoarse, and Andrew could tell he was tired. For Jesus, it had been a long day of teaching. For the disciples it had been a long day of managing the crowds. Today, as they pressed in on him, Jesus had again climbed into their boat, and Andrew and Peter had waded into the sea of Galilee to push … [Read more...]

A Fresh Look at the Familiar: One Thing

{This work of fiction is based on the framework of Luke 10:38-42.} Martha tip-toed into the room where Jesus was speaking to the guests. She padded around the table setting plates at each spot. She did not want to disturb him or her other guests. She did, however, want to disturb Mary. She let the last plate clatter into place to get Mary’s attention. But no one noticed. Not even Mary. Martha hurried back to the kitchen where the kettle was spitting into the fire. She … [Read more...]
