    Celebration of Psalm 23 reviewing the promises of Good Shepherd to His faithful flock.

    Introduction This is undoubtedly the most famous and oft-quoted of the Psalms. But why? Perhaps it is because of the comfort the Shepherd brings. But also, we see the promises of the Shepherd that we enjoy not only in this life, but in the eternity to come. This is a psalm of the Great Shepherd ...read more

    David reflected God’s own heart as He faithfully tended his sheep, as well as when he later was the shepherd king over Judah and Israel. We need a shepherd’s heart to help us care for the people God brings into our lives.

    THE HEART OF A SHEPHERD INTRO: Have you ever thought about what David’s life must have been like as a shepherd? He did not show up for work at 9 am. and go home at 5. He actually lived out in the fields or hills with the sheep. My understanding is that they did not do this year round ...read more

    Psalms 23 is probably the most recognized of all the psalms. David who was a shepherd at one time now relates his experience to the relationship he has with the LORD.

    My Shepherd Psalms 23 This Psalms is probably the most popular of all the psalms written. It is personally for me very special because this is the first entire chapter I had memorized. David being a shepherd in his early years now relates his experience to the relationship he has with the ...read more

    Starting from the angels promise of "good news of great joy," this sermon asks why Christians often don't see "great joy" in their lives.

    WHERE IS IT? The angel promised that this was good news of great joy. - Luke 2:10. - This passage has been repeated frequently enough during Christmastime that sometimes lose sight of its truth and just treat it as a cliché. The angel meant what he said: this was a message of good news of great ...read more

    God is our Shepherd, we are the sheep of his flock. Psalm 23 contains great promises for where we are going when life on earth is over. But it also gives a tremendous promise of comfort: On our journey God is always with us.

    [Sermon preached on 15 April 2018, 2nd Sunday after Easter (Good Shepherd Sunday) / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] We all have the need to think and talk about God in a more or less concrete way. Considering that God is a mystery deeper than the deepest ocean and vaster than the universe, that is ...read more

    Have you ever wondered why God would chose shepherds? Why not Rabbis, priests, King Herod, or the High Priest himself?

    Why Shepherds? Scripture Reading: Luke 2:8­20 Last week we heard about the birth of John the Baptist and that he was the forerunner to Jesus. He was called from the womb to prepare the way for our Lord. This morning we are going to look at shepherds. Shepherds were not really important in the ...read more

    Our churches will no longer be a haven for beggars, but rather a haven for shepherds who have resolved to make disciples of all nations. Our land will no longer be called "desolate," but rather "Beulah," because the Lord delights in us, and our land will be married.

    HABITATION OF SHEPHERDS "Thus says the Lord of hosts; again in this place, which is desolate without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, shall be an habitation of shepherds, causing their flocks to lie down" (Jeremiah 33:12) KJV.

    Strong images of a loving Shepherd, Jesus Christ, shows us God's great care, protection and guidance throughout our lives.

    MARTIN LUTHER ONCE COMMENTED THAT, "FAITH IS A MATTER OF PERSONAL PRONOUNS." IN OTHER WORDS, IT IS ONE THING TO SAY "THE LORD IS A SHEPHERD"; BUT QUITE ANOTHER THING TO BE ABLE TO SAY, "THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD." THE IMAGE OF THE SHEPHERD HAS PROVIDED US WITH MANY ...read more

    One of the greatest of all the psalms gives us hope when venturing out of the sheep pen that a God of great love will accompany us in life's darkest valleys.

    Psalm 23 is by far the most well-known of the psalms. Many people who are not Jewish or Christian can often recite it from memory. It has even made its way into popular films and TV shows (mostly in graveside scenes). Overall this psalm gives us a picture of God as provider, no matter what ...read more
