To study John 10 in a group
1. What it says
Jesus says, “I am the good shepherd.” What does the good shepherd do for the sheep, and how is he different from the hired hand? (vv. 11-15)
2. What it means
Jesus says the sheep hear his voice and he knows them (vv. 3-4, 27). What kind of relationship does that show between him and those who follow him?
3. How I live it
Jesus says he came so that they may have life in abundance (v. 10). In what part of your life do you need to hear his voice today?
