24th Sunday Ordinary Time Year A Sermon

Today’s message looks at Ezekiel 34:1–31 where God is not happy with the poor performance from His ‘shepherds’ of Israel and contrasts their actions to His. And then takes it a step further to inform them He will give them a good shepherd. And we know who the good shepherd is. But have you thought about how the original audience saw fulfillment of some of Ezekiel’s prophecy in their time? And what about the prophecies that haven’t come true yet? And what does it all mean for us modern Christians?
