Christ has appointed certain men to watch over His people. These shepherds, called elders, have a special responsibility for supporting and guiding Christ’s sheep. For that reason, they have an important role in helping the church endure suffering. In this lesson, Dr. Ferguson shows how Peter saw himself as one of these shepherds and urged elders to willingly serve and suffer for Christ’s sheep.
