Paul Gerhardt’s marvelous hymn text is fitting both for Lent and Holy Week. We sing of Jesus as the Lamb of God who goes willingly into sacrifice to bear our sin and be our Savior. He gives His spotless life in place of our sinful lives gladly, treating us as His friends. Jesus does this as the true Son of God at the command of His Father, who desires our salvation. This great love that God has for us is His strength to save us, so that now we stand before His throne in the righteousness of Christ.

Rev. David Appold, pastor at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Paducah, KY, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Lutheran Service Book #438, “A Lamb Goes Uncomplaining Forth.”

Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God’s Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen.
