About this title: The cross and resurrection, suffering, and overcoming death were central themes in Dietrich Bonhoeffer's theological work. Throughout his life, he focused on these themes, trying to disclose their relevance for human life and actions and to answer the question "What does it mean to be a Christian?" These letters and sermons contain Bonhoeffer's personal and faithful word about the crucifixion and the power of the cross for all Christian disciples. They strengthen our assurance and hope that through the cross and resurrection Christ addresses people at the center of their lives and does not ...

"Selections from Bonhoeffer's sermons and writings as well as letters written while he was in prison during World War II. The chapter on Judas is worth the price of the book alone... which includes Bonhoeffer pointing out that, "Jesus himself had called and chosen Judas! That is the real mystery, for Jesus knew from the beginning who would betray him.""
"The "meditations" are selections from the sermons, writings, and personal correspondence of Bonhoeffer. Many of them are excerpts from his time in prison during the Third Reich, taking a stand that led ultimately to his martyrdom. The selections deal not only with the cross and passion, but with Easter and resurrection, as well. I used it as a devotion during the Lenten and Easter seasons, and found Bonhoeffer's insights into the uniqueness and centrality of the Resurrection to be particularly powerful and helpful."
