Peace that Disrupts: Calm Your Storm | 456
Episode 456
In this episode Kaleb narrates how anxiety, looping thoughts, and self-condemnation can pull us away from the moments that matter most. While watching his son overcome fear at a waterpark, Kaleb found himself mentally stuck—replaying frustrations, doubts, and failures. Through John 14:27, he reflects on the kind of peace Jesus gives: not escape from life’s storms, but presence within them—a peace that interrupts fear and helps us stay grounded in what God is doing right in front of us.
What You’ll Learn:
- How to break mental loops of fear, regret, and condemnation
- Why Jesus spoke peace to His disciples before His own suffering
- The difference between worldly peace and the peace of Christ
- How external perspective—God’s Word, a friend, or your spouse—can shatter inner turmoil
- Why recognizing God’s presence can restore joy in your fatherhood and faith
