Remember These Things! 4: The Pastor and His People • 1 Peter 5:1-11 / John 21:15-19 • Stephen Fifer • 31st March 2019

What Kind of Leaders Does the Church Need?

“Shepherds” of God’s Flock

Peter – Apostle, Shepherd, Elder (1 Peter 5:1)

Jesus – the Great Shepherd of the Sheep (1 Peter 5:4, John 10:11-18)

Church Leaders are “Pastors”

Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, serving as overseers…  1 Peter 5:2

The Motivation of the Pastor (1 Peter 5:2-3)

NOT under compulsion BUT willingly
greedy for money eager to serve
lording it over the flock being an example to the flock

The Role of the Pastor (John 21:15-17)

Great Expectations!

Jesus’ Command – “Feed and Care for My Sheep.”
