Shepherds Or Fishermen?

Contributed by Ovidiu Radulescu on Sep 21, 2007

Jesus Is Our Good Shepherd, But What Does That Really Mean?

Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Apr 27, 2015

"My Good Shepherd”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Apr 17, 2024

In John 10 Jesus reaffirms that He is fulfilling Ezekiel 34. Psalm 23 is a Psalm that touches a deep place within our souls. Why would Jesus compare Himself to a “shepherd” if in His own culture the role of the “shepherd” was a profession that was rejected?

In Jesus Holy Name April 21, 2024 Text: Psalm 23:1-3, John 10:11 Redeemer “My Good Shepherd” Psalm 23, may be the most familiar and favorite of all the psalms. The affirmation of God as our good shepherd implies a truth that touches a deep place within our souls. “Even ...read more

The Shepherds Series

Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 30, 2001

God’s choice of the lowly shepherds, as those to whom the announcement of Christ’s birth came, shows that his love is available to all on the same basis -- faith.

[Luke 2:8-20] Most people in America are familiar with this passage, even if they rarely crack open a Bible.

Shepherds?

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Mar 24, 2020

It was lowly shepherds who got the most impressive announcement about the birth of the Messiah. That tells us a lot about the God we serve.

I think the presence of the shepherds has to be one of my favorite parts of the Christmas story. They don’t say much. They don’t do much. But it sure was important to God that they be there for the birth of Jesus. And that says a lot. When the time came to tell Zechariah about the birth of ...read more

True Disciple

Contributed by John Ong on Jun 17, 2015

It is vital that we first heed the words of our Savior and count the cost of discipleship before we truly desire to be His followers.

Citing Luke 14:26, the disciple of our Lord Jesus Christ should put his Master above those closest and beloved to him. “If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, … he cannot be my disciple. It is vital that we ...read more
