I attended the Saddleback video church in Mexico City for two months. Prayed with the men. Gave what I could. Then I was absent three weeks—preaching elsewhere, doing ministry. No one called. No one asked. Then they quietly deleted me from every group. A screen can preach, but a screen cannot notice you are missing. This one is about shepherds, silence, and the God who calls His sheep by name. And it includes a confession—because my first response wasn't pastoral either.
