Foundation: God's Word Shapes Our Church Leaders

We have heard the past weeks how in God’s Word, we have comfort and strength for our sufferings and even death. God now gives you and me the privilege of sharing the comfort and strength God gives in his Word with others. But, that will bring its own challenges and hardships. It isn’t always easy to share God’s Word with others. Other times, we won’t be treated well when we tell other about you. God’s Word continues to strengthen us and gives us to courage to share our Savior!

Go! Tell of your Good Shepherd!

Even though most of us (all of us?) have never tended sheep, we have an understanding of the picture. A shepherd caring for, guarding, and providing for helpless and defenseless sheep. That is part of the picture before us today—our Savior, our Good Shepherd, who laid down his life for us, his sheep. God encourages us with his Word so that through us, other sheep may hear the voice of their Good Shepherd and believe. Go! Tell of your Good Shepherd!
