172: Would Jesus Cross a Storm to Reach You? The Radical Rescue of the Demonised Man
🌊 One boat trip. One broken man. One incredible miracle.
In this powerful episode of the Talkin’ Bible Podcast, Rohan Bell and Phil Wearden unpack the unforgettable story of the Gadarene demoniac — the man who lived in the tombs, tormented by demons, and was radically set free by Jesus.
👉 What makes this story more than just a dramatic Sunday School tale?
Together, they explore:
💥 Why Jesus intentionally travelled to the "wrong side" of the lake
🧠 The impact of trauma, torment, and transformation
🐖 Why demons begged to be sent into pigs — and why that’s not the main point
💬 Should we talk to demons? What does healthy spiritual authority look like?
💬 Key reflections:
Is your story too messy for Jesus? (Hint: It’s not.)
Do we sometimes focus more on demons than on Jesus’ compassion?
Are we willing to be inconvenienced to reach those society has rejected?
🔥 Highlights from this episode:
How this man’s testimony led to an entire region being open to Jesus
Why Jesus crossed a storm just to reach one tormented soul
What this story teaches us about deliverance, dignity, and divine love
A healthy, biblical take on spiritual warfare (without the hype)
✝️ Jesus didn’t just cast out demons — He restored a man’s humanity.
