The story being told in the film is not Bonhoeffer’s story. It’s not the Confession Church’s story. Nor is it the story of the German resistance against Hitler. It is a completely fictional story of Hollywood.

As disciples of Jesus, our righteousness cannot be performed before others, because our righteousness was already performed by Jesus.

Mike, Jason, and Wade, and Pr. Nathan Wordell, discuss the third chapter of Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s Ethics, Heritage and Decay.

The waiting of Advent isn’t just for Christmas; it’s for God’s reversal of all sin and evil and his renewal of all things.

In episode TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHT, Mike, Jason, and Wade, and Pr. Dan Lindner and Pr. Nathan Wordell, discuss the second chapter of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Ethics, Ethics as Formation, as well as campus ministry.

In episode TWO HUNDRED AND SEVEN, Jason and Wade discuss theology and philosophy in the light of the first chapter Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Ethics and how neither can address the whole person apart from the incarnate Christ, who is the reality behind both the church and the world, so that the Christian can no more retreat from the world than the unbeliever can be whole apart from Christ.
