Essential Writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Dietrich Bonhoeffer, theologian, pastor, and martyr, and one of the most significant Christian witnesses of the twentieth century, constantly invites us in his works to discover the presence of God in the world and in history. His courageous resistance against Hitler, his imprisonment and execution illustrate in a concrete way what is "the price of following." A moving account of the eventful existential trajectory of the German theologian, written by the expert hand of Robert Coles, serves as an introduction to this selection of his writings and gives us a splendid access to the very heart of Bonhoeffer's message.
