Household Worship Guide on The Promised Shepherd King and In That Day, Declares the Lord from Micah 5

This week we will consider The Promised Shepherd King and In That Day, Declares the Lord from Micah 5. Who is this promised Shepherd-King and what does He do?

At Springs Reformed Church we distribute a weekly guide running from the Lord's Day to Saturday with Monday-Wednesday reviewing the sermons that were preached the Lord's Day at the start of the week and Thursday-Saturday previewing the sermons that will be preached the coming Lord's Day.

However, for the posts here I am linking to the guide from Thursday to Wednesday so that all are aimed at the Lord's Day as the peak of the 7-day rhythm as seen in the image above. The Lord's Day post includes links to the sermons.

Thursday Micah 5:1-5—A Ruler from Bethlehem
Friday Micah 5:5-9—The Remnant of Jacob Rescued
Saturday Micah 5:10-15—False Hope Removed
Lord’s Day
Monday Matthew 2:1–12—Jesus, the Promised Shepherd-King
Tuesday John 10:1–18 – The Good Shepherd
Wednesday John 15:1–8—Cleansed by the Vine

If you find it useful to use these in your household/family worship, consider asking your pastor to speak to me about him developing something similar in your congregation.

Worship Connected is a guide prepared by me, Dr. Ed Blackwood, pastor of the Springs Reformed Church (RPCNA), to focus family worship around the sermons preached each Lord’s Day. For more information about how and why I developed this guide (and encourage other pastors to consider doing something similar) see here.
