Listening to Sharper Iron is an excellent way to study God’s Word! The content is theologically deep, while still being accessible and understandable. Pastor Appel is a clear communicator and chooses knowledgeable guest pastors to dive into the Scriptures together. This program has definitely sharpened my faith over the years!

Pastor Appel does a wonderful job of asking just the right questions of his guests to keep the show conversational while highly informative. As a Lutheran pastor myself, it’s a wonderful blessing to hear the voices of friends from around the country as they provide sound Biblical teaching and, as a result, a podcast I feel confident directing my congregation to utilize for further study of God’s word!

Sharper Iron is a valuable tool to guide Christians through the Scriptures with the help of two synodically trained pastors on each episode. Pastor Timothy Appel is an excellent host, and I enjoy the variety and unique perspective each guest brings to the show. I have gleaned wonderful insights into the book of Exodus, especially from the parts we typically skim over—the instructions for the tabernacle and its furnishings, instructions for the garments for the priests, and ordination of the priests. I love the connections the pastors make to the significance of these things in the context of the ancient world, but especially as it points always to Christ.

Great for daily devotions to and from work in 10-15 minute intervals. If I didn’t have this it is likely I would have fallen away over the last 2 years. Great guests help unpack scripture unlike anywhere else. Must have for those who cannot read daily or need a shepherd to teach them. Pastor Fisk if you’re reading this thank you.

Great theological conversation.
