Getting ready to teach many troubled young hearts of Next Generation students in Europe and Asia, over the next 12 weeks. I reworked my notes from 25 years ago and wanted to share them with all of you. Hope these truths bless your heart like they blessed mine!
Delivered in the raw, shocking aftermath of the September 11 attacks, John Barnett’s gripping message in "Following Jesus as My Good Shepherd in the Hard Times of Life" reveals that the ultimate tragedy is not physical death—which eventually claims us all—but entering the dark valley of the shadow of death entirely alone. This class will fundamentally shift your focus from global anxiety to the unbreakable oasis of Psalm 23.
The Irresistible Contentment of a Rested Soul
Barnett shares the unforgettable story of an old, diabetic widow living in a drafty, leaking four-room house. Yet, cashing her tiny welfare check, she serenely declared, "I have everything I need.". Barnett exposes a world-shattering truth: wealth is not the abundance of possessions, but the absolute absence of wants. This teaching will completely retrain your heart to find rest, exchanging the frantic pursuit of worldly "stuff" for a deeply satisfying, supernatural contentment.
Unlocking the Seven-Fold Name of Peace
Barnett unpacks how the Shepherd satisfies a sheep’s four critical needs—fear, friction, hunger, and irritating pests—by encoding all seven covenant names of God into six short verses. From Jehovah Jireh (your provider) to Jehovah Shama (your ever-present protector), Jesus proves He is all you need.
Watch this class to step out of exhaustion, let the Shepherd restore your cast-down soul, and begin radiating the quiet, triumphant personality of Jesus Christ to a panicked world.
