Sermons About Shepherd
The Guardian
Peter concludes his teaching on submission to authority with a straightforward address concerning the Servant Jesus. This passage is very likely an adaptation of an early Christian hymn about Christ. It suits Peter’s theme beautifully as, in close dependence upon Isaiah 53, it describes how Jesus, the Suffering Servant of the Lord, submitted to suffering in this world because of His obedience to His heavenly Father. Being obedient to His Father did not deliver Him from suffering, but led Him straight to it! Through His suffering we have found forgiveness, restoration, peace and healing.

Coaching the Basics...Integrity
“It’s Sunday. We have to go to church.” How often have we heard ourselves say that? But is church just something we go to or is it something more? Isn’t church something we “belong to?” If Jesus said the church is like a flock, I don’t go to a flock, I belong to the Shepherd. If the church is like a bride, I don’t go to a wedding, I belong to Jesus and He belongs to me. If the church is like a body, I belong to every part of it and every part of it belongs to me. These are great metaphors, but what does it mean to belong? What are the basics of church? The Apostle Paul coached a young church starter, named Titus, with a hand full of basics that every church needed to practice. As Paul coaches us in these basics, let’s discover where we each belong in God’s church plan.
