New Life Downtown

Psalm 23 may be one of the most well-known and well-loved Psalms because of the way it addresses our longing to be cared for and looked after. Pastor Glenn Packiam helps us see how anything else that we look to as our shepherd--as being able to protect, provide, heal, and guide us--will ultimately let us down. Even when we try to care for ourselves, we can't give ourselves what we long for most. But the Gospel announces that Jesus has come to be our shepherd Himself, and He is the Good Shepherd who lays down His life for His sheep.
