You Were Never Meant to Lead Yourself

What did Jesus mean when He said, "I Am the Good Shepherd"?

In Week 4 of our I AM series, we explore one of the most comforting and powerful statements Jesus ever made. In John 10, Jesus reveals Himself as the Shepherd God promised throughout the Old Testament—the Shepherd who knows His sheep, leads His sheep, protects His sheep, and ultimately lays down His life for His sheep.

The world offers countless voices, leaders, and paths to follow. But Jesus stands apart from them all.

In this message, you'll discover:

- Why Jesus is the Shepherd God promised in Ezekiel 34

- The difference between a shepherd and a hired hand

- What it means to belong to Christ

- How the Good Shepherd knows His sheep personally

- Why hearing God's voice matters

- How Jesus leads His people

- The significance of Jesus laying down His life voluntarily

- The connection between John 10 and Psalm 23

- Why following yourself will always leave you empty

Jesus isn't just a teacher, miracle worker, or religious leader. He is the Good Shepherd who gave His life so that His sheep could have eternal life.
