A Testament to Freedom

The Essential Writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer
to look inside:  http://www.amazon.com/dp/0060642149/ref=pe_180020_24304920_pe_vfe_dp1#reader_0060642149

This book contains excerpts from sermons, books and letters written by Bonhoeffer. He was only 39 when he was executed in a Nazi concentration camp.

Quote:
Christ has become a matter of the church or rather of the churchiness of a group of people, not a matter of life.

My observation is that Bonhoeffer understands community, discipleship and the cross on a very deep level.
