Cheap Grace - A Critique of Fundamentalist and Evangelical Theology

Dietrich Bonhoeffer became one of the most outspoken opponents of Adolph Hitler. In 1943 the Nazis arrested and imprisoned Bonhoeffer.

Bonhoeffer's prison letters resonate with the simplicity and sincerity of a heart touched by grace. Eventually, in 1945, Bonhoeffer met a tragic death sentenced to hang upon Nazi gallows. A medical doctor who observed Bonhoeffer's death said of him “he went to the hangman's noose with complete composure.”
