Dietrich Bonhoeffer has become an icon of Christian resistance to Nazism. But how much of the story we tell about him is actually true?
In part one of this three-part History’s Last Stand series, Mike Bird is joined by Bonhoeffer historian John McCabe, author of Dietrich Bonhoeffer: The Last Eight Days.
They explore Bonhoeffer’s journey from gifted young theologian to pastor, seminary leader and opponent of Hitler’s regime. McCabe also challenges modern attempts to remake Bonhoeffer in our own image, including recent portrayals on film, and takes us inside the extraordinary Confessing Church and Bonhoeffer’s underground seminary.
Who was the real Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and what drove him towards resistance?
