Comment on Why doesn’t everyone go to heaven? by Jennifer

Wes,
I am currently reading “The Prophet”, by Francine Rivers. It is a fictional account of the prophet, Amos (based on the biblical account). He was a shepherd so she spends a great deal describing a shepherd and his work with sheep. She describes a sheepfold. I had never heard of one until I read her book. I certainly had never seen one until I clicked on the link to the photo in wikipedia. Thanks!

In Rivers book, she conveys how attached a shepherd is to his sheep and how he knows them and their behavior intimately. She also describes how sheep are not all alike. Some are eager to follow the shepherd while others are stubborn and want to go their own way. She describes how the stubborn sheep will sometimes lead other sheep into dangerous places and so the shepherd must discipline those sheep. Even when he disciplines the stubborn ones, he does it out of love. As you read her book, the imagery of Christ as our Good Shepherd is clear and beautifully woven into the story.

PS. I love this blog. What a great way to reach this generation for Jesus!
