Today we are looking at the “Good Shepherd” name of God that Jesus gives himself in John 10:11. Vine member Katie Fike shares four ways that Jesus is a good shepherd as well as what our response is to this Good Shepherd: listening to and knowing Jesus’ voice and following where he leads.
1. Read John 10:11-15. What do you think of when you hear the phrase “the good shepherd”?
2. Which of the four ways that Jesus is a good shepherd stuck out to you, resonated with you, or surprised you?
3. What do you think gets in the way of you listening to and knowing Jesus’ voice? What are some ways you can overcome those obstacles?
4. What does “life to the full” (John 10:10) mean to you? Where do you feel you are experiencing the abundant life that Jesus offers in your life today - and where are you not experiencing it?
5. Read Psalm 23. Reflect on how much your Good Shepherd knows you and cares for you.
