Psalms: The Prayer Book of the Bible | Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Eberhard Bethge

Used this as a devotional companion to morning Bible study time. It‘s a wonderful guide to how to use the book of Psalms as a guide for prayer.

Letters Papers from Prison | Dietrich Bonhoeffer
post image

Halfway through Bonhoeffer‘s Letters and papers from prison and this little sentence really slapped me in the face.
…It is eerie to read the words of a man whom you know in the end dies and one whom suspects he will die.

Knowing what was to come made this a challenging read. It was interesting to learn more about Dietrich Bonhoeffer‘s family, beliefs and theological writings. Reading the horrors of the Third Reich never gets easier. It was enlightening to learn about the resistance and disheartening to realize that their plots failed so the regime did not fall sooner. Bonhoeffer‘s impact on Christian theology and a believer‘s place in the world is undeniable. 4⭐️s

Jonathanw That was a good read, just got “Letters from Prison”. Next in the read list. I heard the original biography by his long time friend Bethge. Is even better read. 2y
Honeybeebooks I am definitely interested in reading some of Bonhoeffer‘s works. I might need to tackle the biography by Bethge too. 2y

“We will have to move through a very deep valley, I believe much deeper than we can sense now, before we are able to ascend the other side again. The main thing is that we let ourselves be led entirely and not resist and become impatient. Then it will all go right.” page 374

The Bonhoeffer Reader | Clifford J. Green, Michael DeJonge
post image

I've realized I own 8 Bonhoeffer books and they all have his face on the cover. 😂 They also range from 36 pages long to 1048 pages long! Bonhoeffer was a Lutheran pastor and theologian who resisted the Nazi regime and died in a concentration camp in 1945.

charl08 And which ones have you read / do you like? 3y
ValerieAndBooks My son has this one (and yes his face is on the cover, too!) 3y

Ethics | Dietrich Bonhoeffer
post image

Spring semester is off to a hectic start... The class I'm most excited about right now is the special reading course I got to plan: "Bonhoeffer's Ethics, the Rise of Fascism, and the Church."

Suet624 Wow. That‘s kind of intense. 3y
KathyWheeler That sounds interesting. 3y

#BookReport / #WeeklyForecast: I only finished one book this week (tagged) & it‘s the one where I only had about 25 pages left. 🤦🏻‍♀️ But I‘m hoping to finish both in-progress reads & one other this week:
🦄The Little White Horse: 1/3 left, may finish this afternoon.
👑Sorcerer to the Crown: 1/4 finished—I‘m really enjoying it, but I‘ve been so distractible this week!
🗡Libriomancer: I need to both start & finish this, for book club next Sunday.

Cinfhen For some reading has been an escape for others it‘s too hard to focus/ I‘m finding both 😛I‘ve started the same book 4 times but blew through 2 others 🤷🏼‍♀️ 4y
BarbaraJean @Cinfhen It‘s such a weird thing—varies for me from day to day what I‘m able to focus on, what is an escape, etc. Just trying to stick with what works when it works! 🤪 4y

This is one of my favorite #Advent devotionals. Short daily snippets of Dietrich Bonhoeffer‘s letters to his fiancé, sermons, and other works from when he was imprisoned for speaking out against and resisting Hitler. So peaceful and so much to unpack in his words.
