The Good Shepherd

The Good Shepherd

For the Fourth Sunday of Easter, Bishop John Stowe OFM Conv. preached on the image of the Good Shepherd and how it relates to the current climate crisis.

I think there’s a major concern for living more in harmony with creation, which is a result of conversion. But I think Pope Francis is also, as our good shepherd, calling us to greater urgency to act, because time is slipping away and we haven’t done much.

Bishop John Stowe is the third bishop of Lexington, Kentucky, and the bishop president of Pax Christi. (Learn more about Pax Christi here.)

His reflection is recorded in America Media’s podcast “Preach.”
