Series Information
The Bible talks a lot about shepherds feeding and caring for sheep, sheep being lost and found, and sheep needing guidance. Seemingly simple metaphors sometimes result in us “modern” folk thinking we already have it all figured out.
But when we take a deeper look, there are more questions to be asked:

And how do we care for these sheep?
Do we get to decide who the sheep are and how we care for them?
How do we move past the transactional and take the time to listen and walk alongside?
And how do we care for these sheep?
Do we get to decide who the sheep are and how we care for them?
How do we move past the transactional and take the time to listen and walk alongside?
And, the big one: how are we preparing our hearts and minds for the practical and spiritual work that God wants us to do as individuals and as a faith community?
