Review of The Rise of Bonhoeffer - Shedding ethnocentrism/ loving

Shedding ethnocentrism/ loving God Radically

☆

“I have had a love for Bonhoeffer for many years. Ever since reading his biography. Then life together. But I never found anyone to share that love with. Today, I learned a little bit more about my attraction to him. His ability to shed his ethnocentrism in seeing other’s ways of living and worshipping struck a note with me. Now I see myself more clearly as like him in this way. I am 80 years old and rejoicing at finding a brother with whom I fit. It seems, in the world that I have lived, I must leave Jesus in order to do this. Though I know this not to be true. Those around me either cannot see this or cannot be committed to Jesus radical way of living at the same time. Thank you, how I do look forward to the wonderful journey ahead. Your presentation was so alive and ever so enlightening. I live in Auburn Alabama because this is the place that God has chosen for me. I feel like an alien here and today I have found a place. I no longer drive and have been searching for the depth of thought and community I needed. Thank you”

Which is a shame, because it is truly what we need to be thinking about. Lucky for us, these incredible thinkers have done a...”Read full review »
