Psalm 23: Who’s Shepherding You?
About this episode
This episode explores the themes of shepherding and trust in God through the lens of Psalm 23.
What if your restlessness isn’t random—but a sign you’re being led by the wrong shepherd? This message opens with Psalm 23 echoing through unexpected places (from Coolio to the Titanic), then invites you to sit under David’s most famous confession: “The Lord is my shepherd; I lack nothing.” Walk through green pastures and quiet waters, face the darkest valley with a Shepherd who stays near, and see the startling picture of God preparing a feast even in the presence of enemies. Along the way, the sermon names the rival voices shaping modern life—productivity, comfort, self-reliance, even “the algorithm”—and guides you through reflective questions to uncover where you’re anxious, exhausted, and drifting. It ends with a call to trust Jesus, the good shepherd who lays down His life, and to pray Psalm 23 as a lived reality.
