In this message, Pastor Carey shows us how Jesus distinguishes the Good Shepherd from the hired hand. Using a unique “interview process” approach, we learn four key questions every believer should ask to assess spiritual leadership:
- What does the shepherd do when the wolf appears?
- What is the shepherd’s relationship like with the sheep?
- What does God value from the shepherd?
- How trustworthy is the shepherd?
Discover how Jesus, the Good Shepherd, lays down His life for His sheep, offers intimate access to God, and protects us spiritually—even when the world’s false teachers or distractions threaten to leave us empty.
This message will help you evaluate not just spiritual leaders, but your own path in following Christ, ensuring your hands are full and your soul is nourished.
