Bonhoeffer and the Future of Christian Faith
Manage episode 429910731 series 3564309
Bonhoeffer writes a letter to his friend’s baby on the day of his baptism. The letter explores the future of Christian faith—how the church must change following the violence of war. He focuses on the language of faith—how do we talk about Christian faith using words and concepts that have been rendered meaningless? What happens when phrases, practices, and institutions, are co-opted by ideology? Bonhoeffer’s questions apply just as much to today as they did at the end of the war. How will we talk about Christian faith after the election of 2024 with the polarization, violence, and co-opting of religion? This episode explores all this and more.
