This Sunday’s Gospel

John 10: 27 – 30

• What do you suppose Jesus might have been referring to when he spoke about his sheep being ‘snatched’.  How are attempts being made to ‘snatch’ you for our Lord’s protection?
• What are the sheep required to do in this passage and how does that play into your life?
• Do you ‘hear’ the Good Shepherd’s voice?  How/When?
