  • Summary

  • In this powerful exploration of Christian leadership, we're reminded of the profound responsibility that comes with shepherding God's flock. Drawing from Peter's first letter, particularly chapter 5, we're called to lead with humility, willingness, and eagerness - not out of obligation or personal gain. The passage beautifully connects to Jesus' reinstatement of Peter in John 21, where Christ asks Peter three times, 'Do you love me?' This repetition underscores the essential nature of our calling: to feed Christ's sheep, to tend His flock, and to nurture those around us with the same fervor we have for our own relationship with God. As we reflect on this, we're challenged to consider how this shepherding mindset applies to all areas of our lives - our families, workplaces, and communities. Are we living out our faith consistently, both inside and outside the church walls? This message reminds us that true Christian leadership is about servant-heartedness, accountability, and a willingness to do the hard things for the right reasons. As we clothe ourselves in humility and seek to lead by example, we're promised an unfading crown of glory from the Chief Shepherd himself.
