In this brief devotional commentary, Paul Woodley reflects on the Gospel episode where Jesus, after calming the sea, asks his disciples, “Who do people say that I am?” He recounts the varied responses of the disciples—some suggesting Jesus is a resurrected John the Baptist or the prophet Elijah—culminating in Peter’s bold confession that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and the Holy One of Israel. Woodley emphasizes that this biblical question is a personal call to each listener: “Who do you say Jesus is?” He presents Peter’s declaration as the definitive answer that should motivate believers to affirm Jesus as the Messiah.

Chapters

Jesus said so when he was in that boat and he calmed the sea. He said to his disciples after he calmed the seas, right? He says, "Who do people say that I am?" And I had said that that is the question that we all have to answer is, "Who do you say Jesus is?" And even in the boat, remember when he's asked that question, his own disciples that were in the boat said, "Well, some people think that you are John the Baptist, like resurrected John the Baptist. Some people think that you are Elijah, you know, the prophet." And it was only Peter who stood up at the end there. Lord, you are the Christ. We believe in you. You are the Son of God, the Holy One of Israel. So that is really kind of, if I have a motive, that is the motive.
