Bonhoeffer fought against his own church's failure to critique a godless regime and is an example to us all when faced with similar situations.
Mark's National Theological Institute, Australia) presents an intellectual biography and assessment of German Lutheran pastor and theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945), whose religious views led him to resist Nazism and to become involved in plots by the Abwehr (German military intelligence) to assassinate Adolf Hitler.
We laud all the resisters, including hundreds of faithful Christian martyrs like Bonhoeffer and thousands of other pastors, priests and lay Christians who were consigned to concentration camps.
