Why the Good Shepherd is Sometimes Tough  Click here Click title to view sermon John 10: 1–10

Flocking to the Shepherd  Click here Click title to view sermon John 10: 1–10

Can You Hear What He’s Saying?  Click here Click title to view sermon John 10: 1–10
Summary: Jesus gave us an analogy to help us understand how to discern the voice of God. As sheep recognized the voice of the shepherd, so we too can recognize the Lord’s voice when we hear it. Many other voices are also clamoring for our attention - the sources of which only intend to steal, rob and destroy. So we must keep our spirits in tune with the Lord’s voice, so that we might not be wooed away from the path God intends for us.

Summary: To the people who heard him, sometimes Jesus seemed to speak in riddles they just didn’t understand. But even if Jesus’ listeners were metaphor-challenged, we don’t have to be. We can figure out the message of grace, love and abundant life that Jesus wants us to grasp.

Thinking Like Sheep  Click here Click title to view sermon John 10: 1–10
Summary: Just because we’re used to church doesn’t mean that our words, our songs and our symbols are signs of security to those who seek Jesus. Remembering that real shepherds look at the world through the eyes of their sheep, let us see church through the eyes of someone searching for the gateway to safety, sanctuary and home.

Sacrifice: A Passion out of Fashion?  Click here Click title to view sermon John 10: 11–18
Summary: Jesus’ image of “the good shepherd who lays down his life for the sheep” calls us to an ideal of sacrifice. While sacrifice is an idea currently out of fashion in our increasingly self-centered culture, it is an ideal we need to recover if we are to remain a healthy society.

The GS or the GPS?  Click here Click title to view sermon John 10: 11–18

A Trustworthy Shepherd  Click here Click title to view sermon John 10: 11–18
Summary: Christ called himself the Good Shepherd. As his followers, we can count on his concern for each of us just as a dependable shepherd is for his sheep. He seeks us out, he knows us personally and calls us by name. He will never leave us or forsake us. He will walk with us “through the valley of the shadow of death.” And never leave us alone in trouble and sorrow.

Hey, I Know You!  Click here Click title to view sermon John 10: 11–18
Summary: Jesus said, “I know my own and my own know me ....” What does it mean to say that Jesus knows us? How are we able to know Jesus? When we know Jesus, we invite others into the fellowship of believers. We live with the assurance that Jesus will never leave us.

The Hired Hand  Click here Click title to view sermon John 10: 11–18
Summary: The hired hand as a heroic, perhaps mythic figure, is ingrained into the fabric of American’s history, especially in the West. Often, hired hands were nomadic, working on a ranch in Wyoming in the summer and Arizona in the winter. Jesus mentions the hired hand in today’s gospel reading, so the concept is worth another look. What we find out is that possibly Jesus himself was a hired hand. Or does he really fit this definition? Perhaps there is, as Jesus suggests, a crucial difference between himself as the “Good Shepherd” and a hired hand.
