He became pastor at Frankfurt in 1819, Ruhrort (1823), Gemarke in the Wuppertal (1825), Elberfeld (1834), and the Trinity Church in Berlin (1847). In 1853 he was appointed court chaplain at Potsdam. A powerful preacher, he strenuously opposed rationalism and was an influential leader of the Evangelical Alliance in Germany.
