Pastor James Crawford, overseeing Godspeak’s young adults ministry, preaches from Jeremiah 23, addressing the responsibility of shepherds—pastors, parents, and leaders—to guide with grace and truth. Reflecting on his impending fatherhood and the cultural trend of “cowboy” identity, he contrasts the failure of Judah’s unfaithful shepherds with Christ’s redemptive leadership, as seen in John 8:1–11. Pastor James calls believers to model Jesus, the Good Shepherd, by rejecting bitterness, embracing forgiveness, and leading authentically to build faithful homes and churches. He emphasizes God’s promise of a righteous Shepherd-King, urging the congregation to leave past baggage behind and pursue a legacy of obedience and restoration.
