Dietrich Bonhoeffer Faith and Redemption in the Garden of Evil Part 1 (Benicia Herald)
He was a very interesting man. He participated in one of the plots to kill Hitler and reconciled with the Lord for the justification in doing so. The man was very heroic. The linked piece gives a summary of the man’s life
Eric is quite the dude as well. He poked fun at obama at a prayer breakfast many years ago.
SunkenCiv has a Dietrich Bonhoeffer / Eric Metaxas list.

“If I see that a madman is driving a car into a group of innocent bystanders, then I can’t as Christian simply wait, comfort the wounded and bury the dead. I must try to wrest the steering wheel out of the hands of the madman.”
—Bonhoffer
The film BONHOEFFER: AGENT OF GRACE failed to present Bonhoeffer as a Biblical strict constructionist and one who despised liberal theology. Likewise, the film I saw about Sophie Scholl downplayed her Christian faith. Filmmakers like to present these Christians as cool and trendy instead of who they really were.
Thank you for sharing this... Will be off reading it today.
