"Cheap grace is the mortal enemy of our church. Our struggle today
is for costly grace." And with that sharp warning to his own
church, which was engaged in bitter conflict with the official
nazified state church, Dietrich Bonhoeffer began his book
Discipleship (formerly entitled The Cost of Discipleship).
Originally published in 1937, it soon became a classic exposition
of what it means to follow Christ in a modern world beset by a
dangerous and criminal government. At its center stands an
interpretation of the Sermon on the Mount: what Jesus demanded of
his followersand how the life of discipleship is to be continued in
all ages of the post- resurrection church. "Every call of Jesus is
a call to death," Bonhoeffer wrote. His own life ended in martyrdom
on April 9, 1945. Freshly translated from the German critical
edition, Discipleship provides a more accurate rendering of the
text and extensive aids and commentary to clarify the meaning,
context, and reception of this work and its attempt to resist the
Nazi ideology then infecting German Christian churches.
