    How can we call Jesus the "good shepherd" when there is so much tragedy? From the Sunday after the Columbine shootings. Deals with the problem of evil.

    "I am the good shepherd..." The very fact that Jesus chooses to describe himself as such suggests that there were other less-than-good shepherds operating in the neighborhood. There were people who cared more for themselves than the sheep and were less than considerate-perhaps even brutal at ...read more
