In 1934, during the Nazi regime in Germany, members of the
Confessing Church issued the Declaration of Barmen, which
reaffirmed their primary loyalty to the word of God. With their
action, they established a legacy for future generations to follow
in similar situations.This volume examines the historical,
political, and theological context of the creation of the Barmen
Declaration, as it constituted an act of theological and political
resistance against tyranny, terror, and fascism. The work of the
Barmen Declaration demonstrated clearly and powerfully the
"this-worldly" ethical and political salience of religion and
theology to empower witness, resistance, and solidarity. Containing
contributions from an inclusive array of renowned scholars, the
volume unfolds the lasting legacy and continued relevance of
Barmen.
