Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a German Lutheran pastor, theologian, and key founding member of the Confessing Church, a movement within Protestant churches that countered fascism during the Nazi regime in Germany. Bonhoeffer was imprisoned in a concentration camp and later hanged, accused of being involved in a plot to assassinate Hitler.
This three-part Zoom series will explore several of Bonhoeffer’s writings during his resistance to the Nazi dictatorship, and questions they raise for our current times.
