The German theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer understood Western
civilization to be "approaching a completely religionless age" to
which Christians must respond and adapt. This book explores
Bonhoeffer's own response to this challenge-his concept of a
religionless Christianity-and its place in his broader theology. It
does this, first, by situating the concept in a present-day Western
socio-historical context. It then considers Bonhoeffer's
understanding and critique of religion, before examining the
religionless Christianity of his final months in the light of his
earlier Christ-centred theology. The place of mystery, paradox, and
wholeness in Bonhoeffer's thinking is also given careful attention,
and non-religious interpretation is taken seriously as an ongoing
task. The book aspires to present religionless Christianity as a
lucid and persuasive contemporary theology; and does this always in
the presence of the question which inspired Bonhoeffer's
theological journey from its academic beginnings to its very
deliberately lived end-the question "Who is Jesus Christ?"

Now for the first time in paperback, this is a unique and
magnificent collection of photographs of Liverpool Football Club
from the very early days until 1992, freshly selected from
thousands of images in the Daily Mirror's extensive archive. These
superb photos, many of them previously unpublished, document the
rise of the most successful football club in the English game. The
early days and the championship-winning sides of the early 1900s,
the 'untouchables' of the '20s, the coming of the 'messiah' Bill
Shankly after the lean years of the 1930s, '40s and '50s, the
triumphs of the '60s '70s and '80s, the tragedies of Heysel and
Hillsborough - it's all here. This book will bring to life the
periods, the personalities and the human stories.
Now also a new documentary film written and presented by Peter
Hooton, The Boot Room Boys - BT Sport April 2022. The Boot Room
story starts in 1959 when Bill Shankly arrived and converted a 12 x
12 storage room into a meeting place for him and his coaches, a
move that had momentous consequences, both for the Club and British
football. Fans on the Kop will remember the heart-stopping extra
time of the 1965 FA Cup Final, and the jubilation of winning the
treble in 1984. But what was the common thread during Liverpool's
glory years? It was the Boot Room. Lifelong Liverpool supporter and
editor of legendary fanzine The End, Peter Hooton takes us back
into that old storage room, where first Shankly, then in succession
Paisley, Fagan and Dalglish drank tea, analysed, strategised,
selected and deselected, and built the most successful British club
in Europe in the 20th Century. Illustrated throughout with over 100
powerful never-before-seen images from the Mirror's forgotten
archives, The Boot Room Boys captures the story, as it unfolded, of
Liverpool's conquering heroes.
