This is one of the best books I have ever read. I am a Bible teacher and when researching material to use to help me teach Psalm 23 i came across this book and decided to give it a read. I am forever blessed by the way it helped me to truly understand the love and sacrifice a good shepherd must have in order to take care of his stubborn, self willed sheep properly. If you want to get closer to the Good Shepherd read his book!
This trilogy is a must read for any Pastors, Small group Leaders, etc. Written by a shepherd, it brings things into right cultural perspective, allowing a deeper meaning of scripture.
This is an incredible 3 books in one. The first book is called "A Shepherd Looks as the 23rd Psalm". In this book Keller looks at Psalm 23 line by line (one line of the psalm per chapter). It is a gentle, yet enlightening read. He relates his own personal exepience as a shephard to each line of the psalm providing an unparalleled look at psalm 23. He shows how it is no accident that Jesus refers to himself as the good shepherd and refers to us as sheep. He shows in detail the helplessness of sheep without their shepherd and the importance to the sheep of having a good shepherd, and in turn our importance of having Jesus in our lives. While I was reading this book I felt I was gaining a deeper understanding of Jesus and in turn developing a deeper relationship with my LORD.The second book, I have not yet read, but looking at the table of contents Keller appears to use the parables in John 10 to further reveal the character of Jesus and his relationship to us, his sheep, again using his personal experience as a shepherd and his own realtionship to his sheep. Some of the chapters include "A Shepherd Voice", "A Stranger they will not follow", "Entering into a New Life", "The Abundant Life", "A Shepherd Knows his Sheep and They Know Him" and "Christ Lays Down and Takes up His own Life".The third book, again looking at the table of contents, appears to relate referrences to lambs thoughout the bible, such as "the Passover Lamb", "Abraham's test of obedience" where in the end God provides a lamb, the lamb as a sacrifies for sins and Jesus as the Lamb of God to further explain our relationship with God.In short, I was less than 20 pages into this book when I began recommending it to everyone I know. It is an easy read, but at the same time it offers so much indepth understanding of Jesus. A truly wonderful book and a great relaxing read.
This book is a blessing, we are the sheep of His fold, in His care. Sometimes we forget where we came from, and who is in control. I am in a group doing a book stud of this book. We rate it at the top. Phyllis Delamielleure
I thoroughly enjoyed how the author led me step by step through his own understanding and experiences as a shepherd (of actual livestock) and pastor (of a flock of believers). Gave me some very colorful and helpful insights that I use in my leadership development coaching and consultations.
I read one of the books in college. This book includes three individual books by Keller. One of the best books I have read all summer. Psalms 23 will never be read in the same way as before reading the book
Keller paints a clear picture of the Lord and his sheep from a shepherd's perspective. He provides a much deeper meaning & exposition of these passages that would otherwise be somewhat obscure to Western readers.
This has a way of waking up your spirit to a wonderful look at our beloved Shepherd Yeshua in an amazing way and is a gentle but firm look at ourselves. Incredible for all ages.
