John 10

It's not uncommon to hear Jesus referred to as the Good Shepherd, and John 10 is where He gives Himself this title.  You can read the chapter by clicking here

Remember, the idea of this chapter a week study is to be reading each chapter at least 4-5 times each week.  It would appear there's nothing magical about the numbers 4 or 5, and that's true.  At the same time, there are studies that I wish I could properly credit, but I can't remember where I've seen them, that indicate that Bible reading three times a week results in virtually no discernible life change, while those who read 4 or more times are far less likely to get arrested, etc.  Why would that be?  It's because God's Word is alive.  It's been called the "raw material of life change".  Encouraging people to spend time reading and learning God's Word is why this simple blog Bible study exists. 

As you study John 10, imagine the care Jesus provides you as your Good Shepherd.  Check out verses 27-28 and ask yourself if you are better able to recognize His voice than you were a year or two ago.
