Good Shepherd Sunday: Jesus the Gate and Our Belonging

from Little Saints, Big Lessons: Children's Sermons from St. Peter's Episcopal Church · host St. Peter's Episcopal Church

Mother Paige explains that this Sunday is Good Shepherd Sunday. Referring to Jesus’ teaching, she contrasts a robber who climbs in without using the gate with the Good Shepherd who comes properly and means good for the sheep. She highlights Jesus’ “I am” statement, “I am the gate,” describing him as the way into a safe place, and notes that the Good Shepherd calls each sheep by name and the sheep know his voice. In response to a question about language, she says the sheep can speak whatever language they need and God recognizes and understands them through the Holy Spirit. She connects the Good Shepherd to belonging, emphasizing that in Jesus everyone belongs, and encourages the children to help someone who doesn’t feel included feel like they belong.00:00 Welcome And Sunday00:13 Good Shepherd Sunday01:04 Jesus The Gate01:44 Sheep Language And Spirit02:23 Belonging And Inclusion03:29 We All Belong In Jesus03:57 Challenge And Hallelujah
