Dietrich Bonhoeffer (28)
  1. The real power of his hymn comes from the fact that Bonhoeffer does not offer a rosy picture of life or any of the tropes so typical of cheap piety that tell us that everything is always right, that things happen for a reason, and that we should try to stay positive.
  2. I’d like to offer a short reflection on the theme of “worldliness” as it appears in his later work and how that’s connected to an item of his Lutheran heritage: the theology of the cross.
  3. When bishops err we must not follow...We must obey God before man.
  4. We believers are those who have been called out for a special healing mission in the world because we’ve caught a glimpse of the heavenly city.
