It is a work that you will re-read, dogear, underscore, and make copious notes in the margins many times over the years. It is best read, in my opinion, in digestible portions to avoid being overwhelmed.<br /><br /> Dr.Bonhoeffer showed by example that the walk of a sincere follower of Christ, even through Hell on earth, will be victorious when his eyes are fixed on Jesus and never vary to the right or the left. As our nation and world descends into that Hell in the 21st Century, Dietrich Bonhoeffer's classic "Discipleship" (and "Ethics"), never neglecting Holy Scripture, will encourage faint hearts: we can be, we will be faithful by grace through faith even unto death, if so called by our Lord.abijahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01000655293797466688noreply@blogger.com
