late last month i was blessed to spend the morning on the campus of Malone University to hear noted author Eric Metaxas talk first on his good work on William Wilberforce (the movie Amazing Grace was based on his work) and then on his most recent endeavor…Dietrich Bonhoeffer. There’s a lot to be said, but hearing Eric in his own voice and words is a worthwhile investment. Eric has done much good by re-establishing the legacy of Bonhoeffer. Eric’s book is a must read for any Christian, but especially for those in leadership in the local church. In my mind there are many parallels between Bonhoeffer’s day and our own. Eric’s astute writing sheds much light on what we must pay attention to. There is much at stake in our post modern age that the Church has failed to clearly speak into. Am grateful too to Mark Zimmerman of WCRF rado for leveraging the Kingdom as he does and offering this opportunity to better understand Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
