At the heart of AT YOUR SERVICE today are two stories from the Gospel according to St Matthew - both involve miracles, but one of them involves taking a leap of faith - it's the story of Jesus walking on the stormy waters of the Sea of Galilee, and disciple Peter trying to do the same. For Reverend Jo Dudley (Vicar of Christ Church in Laxey) this story took on a whole new significance after she had the chance to actually be in a boat on the Sea of Galilee. But for Pioneer Minister Reverend Alex Brown, walking on the water - taking a leap of faith - is something he tries constantly to do. He tells his fascinating story in today's programme. And there's music too - listeners' choices - All My Hope on God is Founded, Jesus Calls Me O'er the Tumult and Oceans by Hillsong Worship.
