Jesus is Our Shepherd and He Founded His Church to Lead Us To Him. (Mk 6:30-34)

Jesus Christ is the True shepherd, the One mediator between God and humanity. But to be a complete follower of Christ means also to be an active member of His church, which he established to lead others to Christ, and He promised to be with it until the end of time. Rather than an obstacle, it is meant to be, and with Christ present in it offering His grace, is a means to a deeper relationship with Jesus.
