Podcasts about shepherds

Canon Press, the publishing arm of Pastor Douglas Wilson's ministry, made an unsolicited and unsuccessful offer to buy Christianity Today (CT) for $10 million. CT responded by saying the magazine “is not for sale and has never been for sale.” That has gotten Warren Smith thinking about the dissident right and the role of journalism. Here is a link I mentioned in today's program: Warren's review of the 2024 book “Shepherds for Sale.”

Genesis 33:12-20

God Does Big Things | EZEKIEL 34:11-24 | Week 4Jesus is the Good Shepherd who comes to save and guide His people.

Fr. Mike discusses God's instruction to the people of Israel not to marry women from foreign lands. He explains why God would provide this instruction and how Ezra reacted when he discovered that many prominent Israelites had not obeyed it. He also identifies the prophecies of Palm Sunday and the thirty pieces of silver found in Zechariah. Today's readings are Ezra 9-10, Zechariah 9-11, and Proverbs 20:16-19.

PASSAGE: Titus 1:5-9 1. The Appointment of Shepherds 2. The Attributes of Shepherds 3. The Attention of Shepherds The post Shepherds & Deacons | From Scoundrels to Shepherds first appeared on Redeemer Bible Church.

Pastor Conrad teaches about the qualifications leaders and elders in the Bible.

Mother Miriam Live - September 26th, 2025 Mother reads an article titled "Silent Shepherds, Forsaken Lambs"     

God's People Need Good Shepherds Shepherding is greater than leadership.  The consistent image for leaders in the Bible is shepherds. And shepherds are among the sheep. Shepherds know the sheep and the sheep know them.  Shepherds provide for and protect the sheep.  This is why churches must have good shepherds - leaders, elders, overseers who embody godly character and serve the sheep as shepherds.    Titus 1:5-9 5 For this reason I left you in Crete, that you would set in order what remains and appoint elders in every city as I directed you, 6 namely, if any man is beyond reproach, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, not accused of indecent behavior or rebellion.  7 For the overseer must be beyond reproach as God's steward, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not overindulging in wine, not a bully, not greedy for money, 8 but hospitable, loving what is good, self-controlled, righteous, holy, disciplined, 9 holding firmly the faithful word which is in accordance with the teaching, so that he will be able both to exhort in sound doctrine and to refute those who contradict it.   Free 30 Page eBook to help you Hear and Heed the Bible:  https://www.johnwhittaker.net   Support this ministry: Set up a recurring monthly or a one-time donation at the link below. http://worldfamilymissions.org/john-whittaker/   The Listener's Commentary - In-depth teaching through books of the Bible to help you learn the Bible for yourself:  https://www.listenerscommentary.com   Connect with John: Social Media- connect on facebook and instagram Email - john@johnwhittaker.net If you've been helped by this teaching leave a review and share freely - on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, via email.    

In this lesson we see Ezekiel's message shifting to judgments on foreign powers and a renewed call on shepherds who will faithfully serve God's people.

Pastor Mattie Montgomery sounds the alarm for our need for strong, courageous pastoral leadership in the face of cultural challenges. Contrasting true shepherds who protect their flock with "hirelings" who flee from difficulty, Pastor Mattie urges the importance of speaking truth and confronting deception in society.Support the show

Shepherds care for the flock. And when they can't personally offer the care needed, they set up structures to do so. Teacher - Scott Kenworthy

In this episode, I sit down with Tom Opre — filmmaker, storyteller, and founder of the ⁠Shepherds of Wildlife Society⁠, a nonprofit dedicated to reconnecting people and wildlife through powerful documentary films.Tom has spent his career behind the camera, capturing stories of rural areas and the people who call them home. Over the years, he's witnessed a growing disconnect between rural communities and urban audiences when it comes to conservation. His belief is simple but bold: protecting land and wildlife isn't just about “rewilding” — it's about humans actively managing resources and preserving centuries-old livelihoods so future generations can thrive.A Different Kind of StorytellingThrough the Shepherds of Wildlife Society, Tom is on a mission to tell those stories and spark honest conversations about what conservation really means.To bring this vision to life, Tom has directed three amazing, critically-acclaimed documentaries:⁠Killing the Shepherd⁠An award-winning film following a small African village led by a woman chief fighting back against poaching and poverty. Screened at global festivals and even the U.S. Capitol, the film has sparked real conversations about conservation and social justice.⁠The Last Keeper⁠Set in the Scottish Highlands, this documentary dives into how modern government policies are displacing long-standing rural communities and threatening the Scottish landscape.⁠The Real Yellowstone⁠Tom's newest project tells the story of the American West's ranchers, outfitters, and conservationists caught at the crossroads of tradition and modern land pressures. It's the raw, real-life version of what Taylor Sheridan dramatized in Yellowstone — as Tom says, “this is real life.”Here's the exciting part: The Real Yellowstone is hosting an ⁠exclusive digital streaming event⁠. This event will vanish after September 15th. No replays. No second chance. Don't miss the chance to see it!Tom and I went so deep in our conversation that this is a two-part special:Part 1 (last episode): We explore Killing the Shepherd and The Last Keeper — covering everything from rural Africa's fight for survival to Scotland's historic tensions between landowners and city dwellers.Part 2 (this episode): We dive into The Real Yellowstone and talk about the sacrifices of progress, the rancher's way of life, and why these stories matter for the future of both land and wildlife.If you love filmmaking, history, conservation, or just real-world stories with real stakes — you'll want to hear this one.

Send us a textGUEST: MATT MACARTHUR, eldest son of Pastor John MacArthurThere are several common terms for the ceremony that takes place after death—funeral, celebration of life, memorial service. You can tell a lot about the deceased by the manner and mood of their service. Some are focused on how accomplished and full of good works the person was. Others are about happy memories and photos. Still others are like a dirge, full of grief over the loss.The Bible says, “But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep [dead], so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 4:13-14).To be sure, there should be grief over the loss of a loved one, for we will never see or speak to that person again in this life. Jesus Himself wept when seeing the family and friends of Lazarus lament over his death, not because they wouldn't see him again (He was about to raise him from the grave) but because death is the ultimate enemy and reality of our sin-corrupted world.But the passage above says believers shouldn't “grieve as do the rest who have no hope” because of the promise that God will bring true believers into His presence in heaven to live for eternity, where there is no sin, pain, or death.This is why for the believer the service following death should largely focus on the greatness of God and how He brings the believer into an infinitely better eternity. Instead of a memorializing or celebrating this life, it really should be a worship service of God for this life, and even more, the next.I attended the memorial service for pastor John MacArthur this past weekend at Grace Community Church in Los Angeles, MacArthur went to heaven back on July 14 at age 86 after nearly three years of health problems.Outside my parents, MacArthur has had the most important influence on my life, through his preaching and character. So my older brother and I traveled to the church, as we have done many times over the years for the Shepherds' Conference, an annual convergence for men in ministry. Only this time, we wouldn't be hearing MacArthur preach. We would be hearing others praise God for the grace and gifting he showered on MacArthur's life and the eternal reward he is now receiving.Scripture was read by MacArthur recorded from a past sermon. John Piper offered a personal reflection. Alistair Begg prayed. Joni Eareckson Tada sang and spoke. MacArthur's two sons, Matt and Mark, offered personal perspectives. Sinclair Ferguson preached. Christ-exalting hymns were sung by the Gettys, soloists, choir, and congregation. It was two hours and forty-five minutes of worshiping God for the good work He did in the life and ministry of John MacArthur.MacArthur's eldest son Matt joins us today on the program. Matt and his wife have been married for 40 years and are the parents of three adult children and grandparents of seven. He works in the investment management business and also serves as the president of Grace to You. Matt will offer unique insight into his dad and what the family was aiming to accomplish in the service.---------------------------------Watch John MacArthur's Memorial ServiceJohn MacArthur biography by Iain Murray

In this Bible Story, we witness the humble birth of our hero, Jesus. Mary and Joseph travel to Bethlehem for the census, and Mary begins to go into labor. The Christ child is visited by shepherds, and a man of God named Simeon who prophesied that He would be the light of the world. This story is inspired by Matthew 1:18-25 & Luke 2:1-39. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is Luke 2:7 from the King James Version.Episode 173: Joseph and Mary were on their way to Bethlehem, for the census. But when they got there the city was crowded and they had great trouble finding a place to stay. Finally settling in a stable, Mary gave birth to Jesus, and just as Jesus came to this Earth, God's messengers proclaimed His glory and mission to the shepherds in a nearby field. At once they hurried to find the Messiah and gazed upon him. Eight days later God fulfilled His promise to Simeon, as Mary and Joseph brought Jesus to the temple to present the baby Jesus to God.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

Shepherds' Camp Night | Apostle Moses Mukisa

We are in a cultural war—and it's being fought in our music, our ministries, and even our wildlife. On this episode, Shemane sits down with truth-tellers who refuse to bow down to political correctness, weak faith, or failed policies. From chart-topping anthems to bold ministry calls and global conservation—this week is all about courage in action. [00:39] What Would Charlie Daniels Do?Shemane is joined by her husband Ted Nugent and country star Ira Dean to celebrate their hit single What Would Charlie Daniels Do? Ira shares the real-life road rage moment that sparked the song, how Charlie Daniels once prayed him toward sobriety, and why Ted was the natural fit for the track. Ted recalls Charlie's uncompromising stance for God, family, and country, and together they explain why the song struck such a nerve—shooting to #1 across genres and racking up millions of views. [24:36] Leaving Comfort to Answer the CallFormer police officer and veteran Shane Winnings tells how a radical encounter with God led him to leave a stable career and step into full-time ministry. He unpacks the reality of spiritual warfare, why so many pastors avoid teaching discernment, and how every believer can recognize the battles happening around them. From praying with President Trump to launching Promise Keepers' men's movement, Shane challenges Christians to leave comfort behind and live boldly for Christ in America's mission field. [37:06] Hunters, Conservation & Human DignityAward-winning filmmaker Tom Opre, founder of Shepherds of Wildlife Society, explains why hunters are some of the world's fiercest conservationists. He details how license fees and excise taxes fund wildlife science, why rural voices matter in policy, and the dangers of well-meaning but destructive bans. From Montana grizzly country to Zambia's subsistence farms, Tom shares powerful stories—including the heartbreaking reality of child brides in Africa when wildlife loses its value. His mission: protect creation, uphold human dignity, and steward God's resources wisely.

Fr. Mike explains the beautiful connections between all of our readings today. He emphasizes how good shepherds are willing to face the truth, and also sacrifice for their sheep, like Jesus who laid down his life for us. In our reading of Jeremiah, Fr. Mike also explains that the experience of shame points to the reality that there is something good within us that ought not to be violated. Today we read Jeremiah 6, Ezekiel 34-35, and Proverbs 14:25-28. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
