About this episode
Jesus presents Himself as the Good Shepherd in John 10, establishing not just His divine identity but a leadership model that all Christian men should follow. • Jesus uses seven "I am" statements in John's Gospel, demonstrating His divinity and equality with God • The contrast between shepherds and cowboys reveals fundamentally different leadership approaches • Cowboys count heads, shepherds know their sheep by name • Cowboys push from behind, shepherds lead from the front • Cowboys fatten cattle for profit, shepherds feed sheep out of love • Cowboys love being cowboys, shepherds love their sheep • True Christian leadership focuses on eternal wellbeing, not just temporal success • Leaders must ask whether they love their role or truly love the people they serve Share this podcast to help equip other men for the fight, and leave us a five-star rating and review.
