I Am The Good Shepherd & I Am the Door (Who is Jesus? Episode 2 of 6)
Ever notice how everyone wants direction... but nobody wants a shepherd?
We live in a culture that celebrates independence, self-reliance, and "finding your own truth." Yet anxiety is rising, loneliness is growing, and many people feel more lost than ever.
Maybe the problem isn't that we're wandering.
Maybe the problem is that we're wandering alone.
In John 10, Jesus makes one of His most powerful claims: "I am the Good Shepherd." Not a guide. Not a life coach. Not a consultant. A Shepherd.
And that's uncomfortable.
Because sheep aren't known for their strength, wisdom, or independence. They're known for getting lost, being vulnerable, and needing someone to lead them.
What if the life you've been searching for isn't found in greater freedom from God... but in following Him more closely?
What if the voice you've been ignoring is the very voice that can lead you to safety, purpose, peace, and fulfillment?
This week we'll explore why Jesus didn't compare us to lions, eagles, or wolves—and why that's actually good news.
If you've ever felt lost, overwhelmed, uncertain about the future, or simply exhausted from trying to figure everything out on your own, this message is for you.
👉 The world says, "Follow your heart."
👉 Jesus says, "Follow Me."
👉 One of those voices knows where it's going.
Join us this week as we continue our journey through the "I AM" statements of Jesus. ✝️⛰️
