Overview
Get ready for the wettest, stormiest, wildest trip through the Gospel youāve ever taken!
The gospels are dramatic, wild, and wetāset in a rich maritime culture on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. Jesusā first disciples were ragtag fishermen, and Jesusā messages and miracles teem with water, fish, fishermen, net-breaking catches, sea crossings, boat-sinking storms, and even a walk on water. Because this world is foreign and distant to us, weāve missed much about the disciplesā experiences and about following Jesusāuntil now. Leslie Leyland Fieldsāa well-known writer, respected biblical exegete, and longtime Alaskan fisherwomanācrosses the waters of time and culture to take us out on the Sea of Galilee, through a rugged season of commercial fishing with her family in Alaska, and through the waters of the New Testament.
Youāll be swept up in a fresh experience of the gospels, traveling with the fishermen disciples from Jesusā baptism to the final miraculous catch of fishāand also experiencing Leslieās own efforts to follow Christ out on her own Alaskan sea. In a time when so many are āunfollowingā Jesus and leaving the Church, Crossing the Waters delivers a fresh encounter with Jesus and explores what it means to ācome, follow me.ā
