Author review of Deitrich Bonhoeffer by Michelle Butler for Allegheny Center CMA's library. The graduate ministry read his Life Together several years ago.
Excerpt
Dietrich Bonhoeffer --along with his twin sister, Sabine --was born on February 4, 1906, in Breslau, Germany. Later a student in Tubingen, Berlin, and at Union Theological Seminary in New York -- as well as a participant in the European ecumenical movement -- Bonhoeffer became known as one of the few figures of the 1930s with a comprehensive grasp of both German- and English-language theology. His works resonate with a prescience, subtlety, and maturity that continually belies the youth of their author.
