An enjoyably dense book - I got through it since it was read to me. It was an eye opener about Bonhoeffer's formative theology, AND - in an entirely different vein, the attempts by many in Germany to get rid of Hitler well before the rest of the world understood how dangerous he was. Bonhoeffer's short life offered enough details for two books. Both are completed in this work by Metaxas. ( ) Currently reading. A great read for current events (living and pastoring in a difficult time) - Josiah Smith In a time when many church leaders are pondering their role/voice in current events/culture/political trends, Dietrich Bonhoeffer's life can be illuminating. One of the best bios I've ever read! - Tyler Crowder Bonhoeffer could easily have been a forgotten figure of the Second World War, except for the role of his friends and colleagues in promoting his contributions to theological thinking. Prior to his death, his theology was not widely read. As a pastor, his congregations we relatively small. As a spy, he was employed by the Abwehr but appears to simply been a messenger. As a member of the German resistance, his role was peripheral. And as a martyr, his death numbered amongst the millions who the Nazis killed. Indeed, it is still a mystery why, as the war was drawing to the close, he shared the gallows with Admiral Canaris (former Abwehr chief) and other much more senior resistance figures. Yet, Bonhoeffer's life was fascinating. The account helps cast light on a deep mystery of the period - how did a civilised and Christian country like Germany create so much misery.
In this fine biography, Metaxas stays close to the story and refrains from any efforts at theory. All the more reason to read it: when it comes to the strengths and the limits of post-Kantian liberalism, we already have theory aplenty. But be careful what you read it for....
