Description
We Have a Good Shepherd
In seasons of hurry, busyness, and even uncertainty, the Psalms invite us to slow down and draw near to God. They meet us in joy and sorrow, gratitude and grief—giving voice to prayers we’ve felt but haven’t always known what to say or how to say it. These sacred songs are honest and unfiltered, offering both refuge and hope for weary hearts.
Throughout the Psalms, God is revealed through many names and images—Rock, Refuge, Light, Defender, and Father. Yet one image returns with particular tenderness: the Shepherd. Not distant or distracted, but attentive and present. A Shepherd who knows His sheep by name, leads with wisdom, protects with strength, and walks closely in love. He is not far off. The Shepherd is near.
In The Shepherd Is Near, Julie and Megan gently guide you into a deeper awareness of God’s presence through the Psalms. With vulnerability and grace, they open their hearts and invite you to linger—reading slowly, reflecting deeply, and resting in truth. This is not a book to rush through, but one to dwell in. Page by page, you’ll be reminded that you are seen, known, and never alone, held securely in the faithful care of the Shepherd who walks beside you.
