The Lamb of God and the Gift of True Sight
Jan 18, 2026 • The Rev. Dr. Sandi Kerner
What does it mean to truly see? John the Baptist watches the Spirit descend and remain on Jesus and declares him the Lamb of God, recalling the Passover and pointing to the forgiveness offered at every Eucharist, and when Jesus renames Simon he shows that he sees people as they truly are. A story of a late husband who felt like a failure until, in prayer, Jesus seemed to erase that word and write chosen, makes the point personal.
