Mike Pileggi’s Blog
Hey you! I’m glad you stopped here to read a bit and join the conversation. Below you’ll find different discussion topics. My goal is to be helpful to you, I realize not everyone has the time to read a book a week; well neither do I, but sometimes Seminary pushes me to do just that! I try to condense what I’ve learned, and sometimes synthesize my findings with real-life application. If you find anything helpful, let me know! It helps me think through what to talk about next.
Sincerely,
Mike Pileggi

This post explores what that verse teaches us about God’s character—and how it speaks directly to the quiet battle so many of us face: the feeling that we don’t belong. This isn’t a story about David. It’s a story about the Shepherd who hasn’t changed.
