Jesus was sleeping in the back of a boat with the disciples on board in the sea of Galilee. A terrible storm rose and terrified those who were in the boat with him. They woke Jesus up to see if he might be able to do something. He told them to stop living through fear, and then told the wind and the waves to be at peace. All was calm and quiet on the body of water now after Jesus had commanded the squall to stop. The disciples were amazed. The sea of Galilee was featured in the story. Human geography was featured in the story, showing the disciples and Jesus traveling via the sea of Galilee. Locations were labeled as they travel on the sea of Galilee: which is also part of human geography. The disciples interacted with, and responded to geography, As the wind whipped up a terrible storm on this body of water.
