We Preach Christ Crucified: Sermons by Gerhard O. Forde
Gerhard O. Forde stressed the importance of proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ. In an article in the Lutheran Quarterly, he wrote: "Let us be . . . radical preachers and practitioners of the gospel by justification by faith without the deeds of the law. . . . What is at stake is the radical gospel, radical grace, the eschatological nature of the gospel of Jesus Christ crucified and risen." His sermons reflect that reality.
