Among image of Jesus Christ, the most typical image has been as Good Shepherd from begining of Christianity until now. The first artwork of Jesus found in catacombs describe him as the loving, nurturing, and protecting shepherd of the flock. In another words, the image of the Good Shepherd is typical image of Jesus Christ. whole life and ministry of Jesus was life as good Shepherd over whole life. I hope that I serve church and people as good Shepherd in succeeding ministry.

Part of this is shepherding them in the right direction towards wholeness and self-sufficiency. Sometimes people are like sheep, they don't herd very well. Getting people to move in the right direction is at times like "herding cats.
