Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945) is someone who lived his theology. Arrested for his involvement in an assassination attempt on Hitler, he was executed weeks before the collapse of Nazi Germany. It is this prison experience that resulted in writings that focused on contemporary and future challenges facing the Christian Church. For him, a Christian was called to participate in the suffering to God in the secular life, to be "a person for others," who is Christ for us today?" was his insistent question. In this survey of the life and work of Bonhoeffer, Dallas, Roark shows how he has influenced both conservative and liberal wings of Christianity as well as secularists, and how he remains a source of inspiration for all who suffer under oppressive political regimes. Totally committed to Jesus Christ and the church, Bonhoetter gave himself both in life and in death for other, proving that grace and discipleship are indeed costly. Book jacket.
