The Good Shepherd: Model for Leadership and Love
Through an examination of the profound symbolic meaning of shepherding in the Bible, “The Good Shepherd: Model for Leadership and Love” demonstrates that shepherding was more than just a profession; rather, it was a way of life that was founded on dedication and selflessness. An examination of biblical figures such as Abel, Abraham, and King David is presented, with an emphasis placed on the selfless leadership and dependence on God that these individuals provided.

This makes reference to the enduring legacy and the universal call to shepherd, exhorting all individuals to emulate the compassionate and selfless leadership of Jesus.
