“Surely he has borne our griefs

and carried our sorrows;

yet we esteemed him stricken,

smitten by God, and afflicted.

But he was pierced for our transgressions;

he was crushed for our iniquities;

upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,

and with his wounds we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:4-5 ESV)

In this special Holy Week episode of The Lutheran Ladies’ Lounge, Sarah presents hymns and scripture readings as we meditate on the suffering and death of Christ for our sins. Many thanks to Rev. Sean Daenzer, Peter Slayton, and Erin Alter for lending their voices to this episode.
