Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945) was one of the most compelling
theologians of the twentieth century. A complex mix of scholarship
and passion, his life and writings continue to fascinate and
challenge Christians worldwide. He was a pastor and profound
teacher and writer on Christian theology and ethics, yet was also
involved in the resistance against Hitler which plotted his
assassination. Bonhoeffer graduated from the University of Berlin
and earned his doctorate in theology at the age of twenty-one.
While pursuing postgraduate work at New York's Union Theological
Seminary his life and ministry was profoundly influenced by his
unanticipated involvement with the African American Abyssinian
Baptist Church in Harlem during that time. Protesting the
unconstitutional interference by Hitler of the established national
Protestant church and the persecution of the Jews, and rejecting
the alignment of the German Christian movement with the Nazi
regime, Bonhoeffer became head of an underground seminary for the
resisting Confessing Church in Germany. At the 2012 Wheaton
Theology Conference, Bonhoeffer's thought and ministry were
explored in stimulating presentations. Bonhoeffer's views of Jesus
Christ, the Christian community, and the church's engagement with
culture enjoyed special focus. Throughout it is clear that in the
twenty-first century, Bonhoeffer's legacy is as provocative and
powerful as ever.
