For readers interested in Bonhoeffer's true legacy

Challenges misconceptions about Bonhoeffer's actions

You will gain a deeper understanding of his peacemaking ethics

This book reexamines Dietrich Bonhoeffer's life and commitment to peacemaking.

Most of us think we know the moving story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's life-a pacifist pastor turns anti-Hitler conspirator due to horrors encountered during World War II-but does the evidence really support this prevailing view? This pioneering work carefully examines the biographical and textual evidence and finds no support for the theory that Bonhoeffer abandoned his ethic of discipleship and was involved in plots to assassinate Hitler. In fact, Bonhoeffer consistently affirmed a strong stance of peacemaking from 1932 to the end of his life, and his commitment to peace was integrated with his theology as a whole. The book includes a foreword by Stanley Hauerwas.
