The Great Shepherd

A Free Bible Study with Mark Rae

Find Peace for Every Circumstance

Everywhere you look, scenes of chaos and fear dominate the news. What if you can turn off the noise and be at rest? The Bible tells us that we have a Great Shepherd who keeps us and a Savior who will never forsake us. This truth will secure you even in the most troubling times, and you can establish your heart in divine rest when you meditate on His promises found in Psalm 23.

The Great Shepherd Study Guide is a comprehensive look at Psalm 23, one of the most well-known scripture tracts in the world. Written by King David, who was once a humble shepherd himself, Psalm 23 is also known as the Hymn of Praise to Divine Diligence. It is a beautiful illustration of how our great God gently leads us and watchfully protects us as we navigate life’s uncertain landscape. This study guide breaks down every line of the psalm and explores the nuances of each phrasing, giving you a richer understanding of the amazing relationship we have with God.

Close your eyes for a moment and imagine the Great Shepherd carrying you through hills and valleys in His strong arms, the same arms that carried the cross and bore your sin and shame–how will He not tenderly care for your every need? Get to know our Great Shepherd and find comfort, peace, and assurance for every circumstance. Sign up to receive this free Bible study guide in your email.
