This review is from: Christian Faith in Dark Times: Theological Conflicts in the Shadow of Hitler (Paperback)
a reflective study of christian theologians who in the shadow of Hitler found what was essential about the faith. Particularly insightful about Barth and Tillich. For Christians, self critical reflection is essential if evil is to be confronted and hubris of the faith is to be recognized.
