If Jesus Calmed the Storm for the Disciples, Why Isn't He Calming the Storms in My Life?

Episode 926 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Questions in this Episode 1. Is the sinner's prayer biblical? 2. When the disciples cried out for comfort in the storm, Jesus was there. I have heard many preachers say that Jesus will comfort us when we cry out to him and others say that we won't get that comfort until heaven. Unfortunately I am going through a divorce process that I desperately do not want. My prayers have not been answered. One prayer I pray every day is that I want to feel the comfort of Christ and honestly I have never felt that. What is the biblical idea behind this? Is he there? Is he not always there, may he never be there for me? 3. I feel called to preach but I already have a family and don't make much money, so I won't be able to take theology courses. What are resources you recommend to help equip me to preach? 4. What is the sect The Assemblies of Yahweh? What do you think about them? 5. In Leviticus 5 it says that anyone who touches a leper becomes unclean. But in Matthew 8 Jesus touches a leper and isn't considered unclean. Why is that?
