The Lamb Who Shepherds
May 11, 2025 • The Rev. Charlie Holt
Revelation 7 pictures the Lamb on the throne as the shepherd of his people, and that surprising image frames this Good Shepherd Sunday reading of Psalm 23. Rod and staff become signs of protection, correction and rescue from the pit, and the table prepared before enemies becomes a royal banquet tied to the Lord's Supper. Christ, unlike the hired hand, gives his life for the sheep and can be trusted with our souls.
