Reflections with Andy - Luke 8: 26-39 - God is Bigger than the Boogie Man

In Luke 8:26–39, Jesus crosses into Gentile territory—unclean, scary, “off-limits” land for a good Jewish person—and meets a man possessed by demons, living among tombs and pigs, cut off from everything. To the disciples, it was like stepping straight into a nightmare—but Jesus went right to the heart of the fear and brought peace. Just like He calmed the storm, He calmed this man’s chaos, showing that He is greater than anything that scares us. And while the man begged to follow Jesus, Jesus told him to stay and tell his story at home—a reminder that sometimes our calling is to be faithful right where we are. Whatever your “boogeyman” is today, remember: God is bigger.
