THE AFTERWORD | The Good Shepherd

WestGate Church Teaching

Luke 15 is one of the most famous series of stories that Jesus tells, including one in which Jesus compares humanity to a sheep that is lost. The point of this story - that we are in trouble and need saving - grates at the central story that we modern people tell one another: that humanity is actually stunningly capable of solving nearly every problem that faces us. We aren’t sheep. We are capable. Strong! Smart! Andy Gridley stops by to talk about why Jesus uses this metaphor of sheep. We also trace this theme of God calling Himself a shepherd through the Scriptures - and find it everywhere. All in all, this conversation about sheep isn’t half baaaaaaad. Speakers: David Tieche + Andy Gridley
