March 2, 2022: ”Keeping the Wolf from the Door”

After healing the man born blind, Jesus tells the religious leaders that he is the Good Shepherd of the sheep. This might mean a couple things: first, that Jesus protects his people, but also that Jesus leads his people out into a wider world full of danger. What does it mean to trust Jesus in a world where danger and death are very real? And why can't Christians just stay huddled away from the world? Pastor David preaches, "Keeping the Wolf from the Door" for Ash Wednesday, based on John 10:1-18.
