A discipleship course on trusting Christ the Shepherd, receiving His care, and extending His compassion to others.
Session 2 of the Relational Discipleship course, Shepherd and Lamb, led by Paul J. Bucknell, presents one of Scripture’s most tender images of God’s relationship with His people. It shows how Christ cares for His sheep, brings peace in fear-filled situations, and teaches believers to trust Him rather than live in anxiety. The study also expands outward, urging Christians to care for the flock, support wounded believers, and demonstrate the Shepherd’s compassion in practical ways.
Main Points
• God’s shepherding love is seen in His pursuit, protection, and provision for His people.
• Christ the Good Shepherd gives believers a foundation for peace, trust, and freedom from destructive fear.
• The course distinguishes real needs from anxious wants and calls believers to rest in God’s care.
• Shepherd imagery teaches Christians to care proactively for others, not merely seek personal comfort.
• Pastoral care, accountability, and support for the flock are practical expressions of God’s compassion.
