Description

Wolves in sheep's clothing will come into the church and not spare the flock. How can we discern between them and good shepherds of the Good Shepherds?


In Acts 20: 28-30, Paul urges the Ephesian elders to watch over the flock to protect against wolves that will come into the church - even from among the elders themselves.


What's more, it can be hard to discern between such a wolf in sheep's clothing and a genuine wounded sheep in the church.


Sharing personal experience and reflecting on Jesus' teaching in John 10:1-21, Brian Croft shares five ways to identify good shepherds of the Good Shepherd.


You can watch a video of this talk on ⁠the FIEC website⁠.


This talk from Brian Croft, Practical Shepherding, is from the second of seven main gatherings at the 2024 FIEC Leaders' Conference held in Blackpool from 4-6 November 2024.
