“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” – John 10:11



In this episode, we stand before one of the most profound declarations Jesus ever made. With tenderness and divine authority, Christ does not merely call Himself a shepherd—He calls Himself the Good Shepherd.

But what does that mean?

Why does Jesus claim this title? What makes His shepherding “good”? And why does He promise to lay down His life for His sheep?

Join us as we dive deep into the theological heart of the Gospel. You’ll explore the richness of Christ’s substitutionary atonement, the intimacy of His love for His sheep, and the exclusive, soul-rescuing nature of His saving work. Whether you’re struggling with sin, overwhelmed by anxiety, or simply in need of gospel-saturated hope, this message is for you.

Christ sees you.
Christ knows you.
Christ gave Himself for you.

And He still holds His sheep today.

We end this episode by beholding the cross, rejoicing in our Good Shepherd’s love, and echoing the words of Hebrews 13:20–21:

“May the God of peace… equip you with everything good… through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.”

You are not forgotten. You are not alone. The Good Shepherd has laid down His life for you.

This week we will be reading the following Scripture:

• John 10: 11

In today’s world, the phrase “Love is love” is often thrown around to justify sin, but what does the Bible actually say about love?

In this episode of Hard Truths, we will tackle the misconception that love and truth are opposites. Drawing from Matthew 10:34-39, Galatians 4:16, 1 Corinthians 13:4-6, and more, we'll explain why the love of Christ divides and how standing firm in truth can cost us, even the respect of those closest to us.

We discuss why real love does not affirm sin but calls sinners to repentance in a loving, yet truthful way—just as Christ did.

This episode also emphasizes that when we confront sin or false worldviews, whether in the public sphere or in our personal lives, we must do so with gentleness and respect, just as 1 Peter 3:15 commands.

Ultimately, love that refuses to speak the truth isn’t love at all—it’s cowardice. But if you speak the truth with Christ-like compassion, even the world’s rejection can’t take away the peace Christ gives.

If you’ve ever wondered what true love looks like, this episode is for you.

And remember, you don’t need to look up in the sky for a savior—the One who truly saves has already come down.

And how does this truth bring deep comfort, holy conviction, and lasting rest for the weary soul?

Join us as we explore the exclusive, gracious, and hope-filled reality that Christ is the Door—the only entrance into eternal life.

Fear not. He calls you by name. He has redeemed you. You are His.

As we begin studying John 10, we see Jesus describe the love of God using a shepherd and sheep metaphor. He calls us His sheep. He cares for His sheep. His sheep know His voice and do not listen to another. What hope can be found in this? What joy? And what does Christ mean when he calls us sheep compared to what the world means when it calls us sheep?

In this episode of The Isaiah 43 Podcast, we walk through the powerful conclusion of John 9, where Jesus seeks out the outcast once more—not just to restore physical sight, but to grant spiritual sight and saving faith.

We see the unfolding transformation of a man once blind, abandoned, and scorned, now standing in the presence of the Son of Man and worshiping. But more than a story of healing, this is a testimony to the heart of Christ—our seeking Savior who finds the cast-out, confronts the proud, and calls us to believe.

From the temple courts to your earbuds, Jesus still asks, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?” This episode is a call to humble faith, to see the mercy of the Good Shepherd, and to find hope in the One who sees us first.

The whole world is against you. So speak.

As we continue through John 9 and the testimony of the man who was born blind, we see that he is brought before the Pharisees once again. They demand to know what happened - not so they can praise God that they might control. What this man does next is an inspiration for us all. Without any education, this man speaks boldly under fire for Christ. And what does he say? He simply speak the truth of what Christ has done. May we all do the same.
