Product Description:
Does your Christianity stay inside the church walls? Or does it involve day to day action in the world around you? Theologian and martyr Dietrich Bonhoeffer's writings offer a look at the meaning of life and faith in the world beyond our church doors. Bonhoeffer believed that it is possible to change that world, but only if we allow ourselves to be transformed into the likeness of Christ.
Presented in a devotional format, these daily readings offer rich insight into his deep faith and struggles, his prayer life, personal theology, ideas on activism, vision of the church, and his courageous willingness to walk the lonely road of obedience. Each reading will thoughtfully challenge you to move from the safety of the sanctuary into a troubled world that desperately needs the love of Christ.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Bonhoeffer For Dummies
If anyone is not familiar with Dietrich Bonhoeffer's writings, this little sample, along with the emphases by Charles Ringma, would make a nice introduction. There is, by far, more of Ringma than there is of Bonhoeffer, but his elaborations are thought-provoking and insightful. Especially helpful is the concluding thought summary which provides food for reflection throughout the day.
Rating: - Daily Bonhoeffer - WHat more could you ask for?
This liitle book has been with me since the first day I bought it and I haven't missed many days since.
This book continues to amaze me in the very solid insights it instills day by day. One should be warned: these are not from your typical close minded point of view, but rather a honest down to earth interpretation of Bonhoeffer at his best. Dr. Ringma's application to daily life is very insightful and the short 'prayer and thought of the day' usally drive the point home.
