Bonhoeffer on Church and State

Dietrich read the texts:

Wondering where to give this Giving Tuesday? (I know, there are so many good olaces!) I’d deeply appreciate any consideration you might give to helping me in this likely last stretch of my ministry work.

If ever there was a time when people need to reach past religious divisions and differences, it’s now—and that’s what the Miller Center for Interreligious Learning & Leadership of Hebrew College is all about.

Any size gift will help me continue to develop The Dietrich Bonhoeffer Project at the Miller Center. I think we desperately need new Dietrichs for our time. If you agree, would you make a tax-deductible donation of just $10, $20, or even $50 today? Scroll down to the support window and mark it for “The Dietrich Bonhoeffer Project.”

Thanks!

"It is therefore under no circumstances possible to speak theologically of government apart from Jesus Christ nor, since he is indeed head of the church, apart from the church of Jesus Christ. The true grounding of the government is therefore Jesus Christ himself." (From A Theological Paper on State and Church
