Lamb of God, Pure and Holy-Lent Preaching & Worship Resource with CD-ROM

Lent is a multidimensional season of the Church Year, shaped by the preaching of the Lord's Passion, penitential reflection, catechetical formation, and anticipation of Easter. Lamb of God, Pure and Holy, offers solid, Christ-centered materials for preaching, Bible study, and worship during the forty days of Lent, the services of Holy Week, and Easter Sunday.

Based on the Lenten hymn "O Lamm Gottes," the exegetical material and full sermons explore key pericopes that focus on Jesus Christ as the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Coordinating children's messages, Bible studies, and worship resources provides a unified theme for:

• Ash Wednesday / The Pure and Holy Lamb of God/ 1 Peter 1:18-19
• Lent 2 / The Crucified Lamb of God / 1 Corinthians / 1:21-25
• Lent 3 / The Patient Lamb of God / 1 Peter 2:21-24
• Lent 4 / The Lowly Lamb of God / Philippians 2:5-11
• Lent 5 / The Lamb of God who bears our sins away / Genesis 22:7-8, 13-14; John 1:29
• Lent 6 / The Lamb of God who suffered scorn / Psalm 22:6-8
