This podcast is for moms, who feel too busy, distracted, and tired to spend time with Jesus, much less to help their kids do the same. As Moms one of our biggest goals is to see our kids get to heaven, but we can’t introduce them to a God we don’t know ourselves. But between drop off and pick up lines, practices, and activities, when are we to find the time? There is hope! This podcast will help you feel encouraged, inspired, and equipped to fight distractions and find the time as we learn to focus on Jesus together.

Ep. 49: The Good Shepherd (John 9-12)

Let’s LOOK together:

Listen

John 10:1-16

Observe

V. 1-5: Shepherd

Follow because they know his voice – we must spend time with Jesus to know his voice
Jesus leads them – he never asks anything of us that he hasn’t done himself (John 13)

V. 6-10: Gate

Back then sometimes the shepherd laid across the sheep pen at the gate. (https://ourdailybread.org/article/jesus-said-i-am-the-gate/) He was protecting his flock and only allowing in who and what he deemed best for them.
He also lets them out to find safe pasture and abundant life
Zoe life vs physical life (Empowered notes – Lori Varnell)

V. 11-13: Good Shepherd

Sacrifices life for the sheep. He’s willing to give everything.

V. 14-16: Good Shepherd

He knows his sheep intimately
We can know him “just as my Father knows me and I know the Father.” Wow!
Bringing everyone together (us!) under him.

Open

Prayer–Take time to sit quietly with God, pray, and worship him.

Keep

If you’re not in God’s word regularly, start there. Join our online study at taralcole.com/join or in the show notes to get started. Start with us in the middle of John this month. There’s no such thing as too late! That way you can begin to know Jesus’ voice and follow him.
If you are regularly in the word, excellent! Begin to decipher Jesus’ voice from the voice of the world and Satan (the adversary–as explained in a Bible Project video linked in the shownotes). When you hear you’re inner soundtrack, compare it to know what you know to be true from what you know of Jesus' voice. Does it sound like what you know of God? Or does it not?
