Listen "John 10:1-21 - The Good Shepherd"

Episode Synopsis

Jesus used three metaphors to continue to tell the people in Jerusalem who He is and what He came to do. All three in this passage center around shepherding and sheep. Most of us didn’t grow up around sheep, and probably don’t know the first thing about shepherding life and work. Even still, the passage is very clear on teasing this out for us as we look to Jesus. Understanding the shepherding motif is important because it pops up throughout the New Testament as we consider a life following Jesus and a life in the Church, the flock of the Good Shepherd.
