  • Episode 4: The Heart of a Shepherd- Part 4

    Got a question about today’s episode or something else you’d like to hear us talk about on the show? Let us know! 


    What is keeping you from living a full and abundant life? In part 4 of our series, The Heart of the Shepherd, Dot will be teaching us that the lies we believe are aimed to steal, kill and destroy us from living out the abundant life God has offered us through his son, Jesus.

    Write this Down:

    John 10:7-10
    Ezekiel 34

    When we are willing to set our eyes on Jesus and allow Him to be our Good Shepherd, we will be able to enjoy the life that He has given us, that abundant life only Jesus can offer.

    Take these questions before your Heavenly Father and ask Him to open your eyes to the truth

    -What are the things that have kept me from the life you offer?
    -What has come between me and my Good Shepherd?
    -What are the lies that I have believed?
    -What are the circumstances that I have viewed as God’s punishment?
    -Were there certain people, teachings or circumstances that have led me astray, away from God?
    -Who do I need to forgive?

    Remember that God is your Good Shepherd and He will take care of the people who have led His children astray. We forgive because He has forgiven us.

  • Episode 3: The Heart of a Shepherd- Part 3

    Got a question about today’s episode or something else you’d like to hear us talk about on the show? Let us know! 


    We all want to be known, but did you ever think that God may have that same desire, to be known? God wants us to know Him and to know Him by His names. In Part 3 of The Heart of a Shepherd, Dot walks us through Psalm 23:6, teaching us the different names of God that show us just how intimate and personal of a God He truly is. When we call upon the name of the Lord, we can rest in His comfort and face any challenge life may throw our way.

    Write This Down:

    The more you get to know God, the more you will love Him. The more you love Him, the more you will enjoy following Him and be willing to do whatever He has asked you to do.

    Jehovah Rohi: God is our Shepherd.

    Jehovah Jireh: God is our provider.
    Jehovah Shalom: God is our peace.
    Jehovah Tsidkenu: God is our righteousness.
    Jehovah Shammah: God is always there.
    Jehovah Nissi: God is our banner of victory
    Jehovah M’Kaddesh: God is the God who sanctifies.

  • Episode 2: The Heart of a Shepherd - Part 2

    Got a question about today’s episode or something else you’d like to hear us talk about on the show? Let us know! 


    Are you in a season of trial? Is life not turning out the way that you thought? In part 2 of The Heart of a Shepherd, Dot teaches us out of Psalm 23:4-5. As she walks us through the valley of shadow of death, she reminds us that we are not alone, God is with us. In this heartfelt episode, Dot shares her personal experience of her own valleys and leads us to the truth of how to face our dark moments: “We cannot enjoy the mountaintop experiences with God until we are willing to walk with God through the valley of shadow of death, but we can look back on the journey and realize there was never a day that you were not guided and lead by a Great, Mighty Shepherd.”

    Write This Down:

    What thoughts are shaking your faith, keeping you from trusting God or knowing the truth of God?
    Go back over Psalm 23:4-5 and ask God, do I think and believe you are with me during this time, during this valley?
    Do I trust you, God?
    Do I fear that evil is going to win? Or do I know that you, God, have overcome evil?
    Be honest before God, tell Him what you want. Pray and seek God and tell Him all that is in your heart.

  • Episode 1: The Heart of a Shepherd - Part 1

    Got a question about today’s episode or something else you’d like to hear us talk about on the show? Let us know! 


    Psalm 23 is known as the Psalm of comfort during times of trial and suffering for many. I think we can all agree, in the year of 2020, we need some comfort during these days of suffering and unknown. Join Dot for a 5 week series looking at the heart of God through the eyes of a shepherd in Psalm 23 and John 10.

    In week one, Dot teaches us out of Psalm 23:1-3, how to fight the fear of the unknown and how to find comfort in the Great I Am who provides for our needs. David reflects on God as his Good Shepherd to show us that God is a God who cares for us, who makes all things new and brings life out of death.

    Write This Down:

    I think. I feel. I want. I value.
    God, what do I think about you? Do I know and understand you are my Good Shepherd?
    Do I feel that You have my best interest at heart?
    Do I want what You want?
    Do I value our relationship so much that I run to you and ask you to be the Shepherd of my life?
    Ask God, what do I really think, feel, want and value?
    Go before God and ask Him these questions, when we begin to be real before God and share our hearts to our Good Shepherd, we are able to see His heart.
