Very few of us have experience as a shepherd, making it difficult to comprehend what God expects when He encourages us in scripture to be good shepherds.
In Jeremiah 23, God gives us a glimpse of the contrast between a bad and a good shepherd. In verse 2, Israel’s leaders receive a warning, “You have scattered my flock and have driven them away, and you have not attended to them. Behold, I will attend to you for your evil deeds, declares the Lord.”
In Jeremiah 23, there are three primary ways God instructs us to be good shepherds. The first is to care for our flock.
When God calls us to care for our team members, He desires us to consider what’s best for them, not only for our self-interest.
