About this audiobook

This booklet opens with the story of Jesus and His disciples crossing the Sea of Galilee where Jesus rebukes the wind and waves of a deadly storm (Mark 4:37-40). According to J. C. Ryle, this story is full of instruction for all of us. He explains under five headings what we are to learn: 1) Christ’s service will not secure us against troubles, 2) the Lord Jesus Christ is truly man as well as God, 3) believers may have much weakness, yet still be true believers, 4) Christ has all power, and 5) Christ is full of kindness towards His people. Ryle ends with a description of his purpose in writing: “I want believers to know Jesus better that they may be more happy, more holy, and more meet (fit) for the inheritance of the saints in light.”

    Short and sweet, but full of Biblical truth. Would be a great encouragement to any who are struggling to trust God due to trials or anxiety.

    J.C. Was a tender beast. This booklet was exactly what I needed to hear. The ruler of the waves is in the boat with us! The practical applications toward the end were my favorite. Will listen to again.

    This is an encouraging booklet. Short but deep in knowledge of our Savior Jesus. In few words the author gives to the reader the reason why we don't need fear the difficulties of life, Jesus is in the boat with us.

    Not a deep dive. No real revelations, for me. But, it spoke of doctrine, anecdotes, and commentary. No complaints. Thanks*
