Book Description

Publication Date: September 2002 | Series: Men of Faith

When Discipleship Cost Everything

Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945) paid the ultimate price for his faith and principles. A pastor and founding member of the Confessing Church in Germany, Bonhoeffer participated in underground conspiracies against Hitler. Best remembered for his writings, his story continues to inspire and instruct Christians more than fifty years after his death.

This gripping account of Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s life puts in context the horrors of Nazi Germany and the challenge Hitler presented for dedicated German Christians. The events of World War II take on a new reality when viewed through the life of one man, his family, and associates.
