Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Lutheran Saint and Martyr

Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a rising star in German Christianity. His resistance to Hitler and the Nazi Party led to his imprisonment and to his being hanged shortly before his prison camp was liberated by Allied forces, only weeks before Nazi Germany’s surrender in WWII.

On Saturday, January 11th at 9:30 in the First Lutheran Fellowship Hall, Dr. Robert Saler will be giving a presentation on issues relevant in both Bonhoeffer’s time and our own. Dr. Saler’s presentation will be framed by the following questions:

  • “Does following Jesus take us out of the world, or deeper into it?”
  • “What does Religion have to do with Politics in times of upheaval?”

Dr. Saler invites you to “Come! Discuss these themes with Bonhoeffer as our guide.”
