Jesus prepares his disciples for the monumental changes that are coming because of His death on the cross. The disciples, however, are disturbed because Jesus tells them that they cannot go where He is going.

If the resurrection of Jesus is true, then everything about the gospel is true. If the resurrection isn't true, then nothing about the gospel is true. How do we know the resurrection was real and what does it mean for us?

It's so easy to get caught up obsessing over and complaining about the things we lack and lose sight of the fact that we live in a great abundance of everything the really matters when we follow our Great Shepherd.

Jesus knew that Judas was going to betray him. That foreknowledge helps us have an even deeper faith in Him because it means that the events of Jesus' death didn't happen TO him, He was in control the entire time.

Everyone has to walk through dark valleys in life. It's unavoidable. The good news for the believer is that they don't have to walk through those valleys alone. Knowing that the Good Shepherd is near gives us confidence in spite of the valley.

Not only does our Shepherd give us contentment and peace, but He also offers us purpose in life.
