2025 Episode 42, 1 Peter 4-5, John 1-3

In this week’s episode, Mickey wraps up 1 Peter and begins our journey through the Gospel according to John, focusing on the powerful sheep and shepherd theme woven throughout these chapters.

He explores the transformation that happens when we follow Jesus—moving from worldly goats to sheep in His fold, and eventually growing into shepherds who reflect Christ’s heart.

Mickey highlights how Jesus, the Good Shepherd, leads in various settings—especially in His interaction with Nicodemus, a truth-seeking Pharisee.

Finally, Mickey challenges us to follow Jesus’ example by being shepherds who are willing to lay down our lives for those entrusted to us.

We hope this episode encourages and challenges you as you reflect on this week’s readings.
