Psalm of the Good Shepherd
Introduction.
I. Christ the Good Shepherd.
II. Shepherd Life in the Orient.
III. The Lord Is My Shepherd, I Shall Not Want.
IV. He Maketh Me to Lie Down in Pastures of Tender Grass; He Leadeth Me Beside the Waters of Quietness.
V. He Restoreth My Soul.
VI. He Leadeth Me in the Paths of Justice for His Name's Sake.
VII. Yea, Though I Walk in the Valley of the Shadow of Death, I Will Fear no Evil, for Thou Art With Me.
This reflective work opens with the timeless Psalm of the Good Shepherd, inviting listeners into a peaceful meditation on the verses that speak of green pastures, quiet valleys, and comforting guidance. The author gently draws parallels between the simple, caring duties of a shepherd in ancient Palestine and the profound love Christ shows for each soul, using vivid pastoral images to illuminate familiar biblical promises.
Through thoughtful exposition, the book explores how the shepherd’s watchful presence, provision, and protection echo the Savior’s ongoing ministry in our daily lives. Listeners will find encouragement to see their spiritual journey as a shared walk with a guiding Shepherd, discovering fresh appreciation for the ancient text’s relevance today. The tone remains contemplative, aiming to deepen personal devotion without revealing any later theological developments beyond this opening study.
