I often make the point at funeral services that the five most important words in the English language that any person can say about themselves, are those which open Psalm 23: `The Lord is my Shepherd.
David Gibson, minister of Trinity Church Aberdeen, begins this most readable book by dwelling on that famous phrase. He unpacks something of the wonder, glory and greatness of the Shepherd, the Lord Jesus, whose activity permeates the rest of this famous and beloved Psalm. On the believers’ journey from pilgrimage to banquet, the care, guidance, protection, and discipline of the Good Shepherd is wonderfully traced.
