Ep. 244 - I Am Jesus' Little Lamb, Ever Glad at Heart I Am - John 10:11-13, 27-28

This sermon was preached at Mark Genz's Funeral, focusing on the comfort all of us have as Christians, both young and old, that WE are the little lamb in the picture. We are the sheep that our Good Shepherd stops at nothing to save. He lays down his life for US. This is the great comfort Mark's family has and this is the great comfort you can have as well, that when we know and believe in Jesus, we know and believe that we are loved and cared for here and we also know we will be loved and cared for in the house of the Lord FOREVER. The Sermon Text: John 10:11-13, 27-28“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. 13 The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.
