About this listen

In the face of ruthless totalitarian rule, it is only the rare few who stand up at risk of their own life to do what is right. Dietrich Bonhoeffer was one of those exceptional individuals. Even on pain of death, he would not bend, he would not budge - this German pastor fought the Nazi regime with every fiber of his being.

Inside you will hear about....

  • Bonhoeffer during World War I
  • The Making of a Great Theologian
  • Pastoral Career in Barcelona
  • Bonhoeffer Heads to America
  • Resistance Against the Nazi Party
  • Imprisonment and Execution
  • And much more!

Today, Dietrich Bonhoeffer is recognized by the United Methodist Church as a Christian martyr, one of only a few to have been bestowed this honor since the Reformation. His legacy as a man who practiced what he preached lives on and has inspired movements all over the world, ranging from the Civil Rights Movement in the United States to the anti-Apartheid movement in South Africa.
