THE CRISIS OF SHEPHERDSHIP
Let me say this plainly…
We don't have a leadership crisis in the Church.
We have a shepherding crisis.
Because leadership builds platforms…
But shepherding carries people.
In Ezekiel 34, God rebukes the shepherds of Israel:
“Woe to the shepherds… who only take care of themselves!”
That's strong language. Why?
Because they fed themselves…
But not the flock.
They led for influence…
But not for responsibility.
And if we're honest—
That same spirit is creeping into the modern Church.
We've replaced:
And God is saying again—
“Where are the shepherds who will actually care for My sheep?”
