The Hidden Life of a Shepherd

It's easy for a pastor to judge his ministry by what others can see: the size of the church, the platform, the response. But the true test of a shepherd is what drives him when no one is watching. In this message from 1 Peter 5:1–5, Hershael York looks at Peter's charge to elders and shows that faithful shepherding comes down to whose flock it is, why we serve, what we hope to gain, and how we lead. He calls pastors to put on humility like a servant's apron and to follow the pattern of the Chief Shepherd, whose suffering leads to glory.
