The effort to make Dietrich Bonhoeffer a more known historical figure sure is a good thing. The biography of Eberhart Bethge is a masterpiece. Sure, much time has passed since his book - but he was the personal close friend of Bonhoeffer (and himself captured by the gestapo in 1944). Metaxas could use Bethges book (over 1000 pages - and none of it boring) - he tries to show the people what an amazing great person Bonhoeffer had been. And this is a good thing.
Bonhoeffer sat in a church listen to a preacher (Like Obama) who was "Powell combined gentle, meek, non-violent love with revolutionar radical social change" See Against Cheap Grace in a World Come of Age: An Intellectual Biography of Clayton Powell, 1865-1953. p11. That should warm Glenn Becks soul lol
Just about the kind of response I'd expect from you....not wasting any more time on you, sport. Go watch MTV, or better yet....take English 101, and learn about proper sentence composition....
i saw this guy metaxas destroyed by hitchens and he could not even see it what a horrible loser bonhoeffer is probably an interesting character but metaxas has killed my curiosity to delve further
Bonhoeffer was brave but powerless. He is one of the reasons i don't believe in a god. It's all talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk
@vohshkab You're yet another example of a loser, who can only hurl insults from the cheap seats, who has never said, written, or done anything of note. Nobody will ever pay to go hear you speak, discuss over coffee with a friend anything you've written; another waste of a person who hides behind the Internet...crawl back in your hole, nobody cares what you think.....
