At TGCW24, Courtney Doctor teaches on Jesus’s statement, “I AM the Good Shepherd” from John 10:11-18. A good shepherd cares for, protects, and provides for his sheep.
Throughout scripture, we're compared to the sheep who go astray or get lost. We need continual care and vigilant protection, and Christ offers us that and so much more. He's a shepherd who seeks out the one lost sheep and rejoices at its discovery! He leads us, guides us, and restores our souls.
Doctor teaches the following:
- The role of shepherds in the biblical narrative
- Jesus as the Good Shepherd
- Surprise 1: seeking unexpected sheep
- Surprise 2: leading on unexpected paths
- Surprise 3: dying an unexpected death
- The Lamb is worshiped as the shepherd in Revelation 7
- Know the Good Shepherd and follow him forever
