Excellent and beautifully composed allegory of the relationship between “The Great Shepherd” and us, His flock. Humorously, we truly are more alike unto sheep than I originally believed!

Beautiful metaphors! Interesting facts. I’m gifting this book to my Catholic friends for Christmas.

At first glance this book seems like a simple overview of one of the most famous and quotes passages in the Bible. Yet within the first few pages all expectations shatter. Psalm 23 becomes alive, because you’re able to see where David was when he wrote it. Everything has meaning, and it all points to the LORD. Keller does a wonderful job of bringing life and meaning to each thought David had. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who is wanting to understand the LORD’s heart for His sheep.

When I first got this book I would casually read through the journey of this Shepard. As I progressed I felt the spirit. I’m a 29 year old relearning how to have a relationship with God, and this book is great. It’s a guiding force that shares the parallels between the responsibilities of a Shepard, and how our current affairs in society impact our relationship with God. From the minuscule tasks of sheering a sheep and how that affects the body, and balance of a sheep to how our own bodies and understanding effect our relationship with God. Sheeesh. Now that I’ve completely finished the book. I can’t wait to reference my bookmarks as I travel through the hills sides. Great for beginners in The Word, and anyone who might be seeking or understanding their rocky relationship with the living Word.
