""This book is like an artistic mosaic in which the chapters are brought together to create a beautifully interconnected whole. Larry Rasmussen has succeeded in piecing together all the various aspects of Bonhoeffer's religious thought as it pertains to society, church renewal, and the new paths opened up for theology and ethics. The result is an illuminating study of Bonhoeffer's theology in the context of issues that are of special interest to North Americans."" --Geffrey B. Kelly, Professor of Systematic Theology, La Salle University ""This book serves as a wonderful companion volume to the sixteen-volume Dietrich Bonhoeffer Works. Rasmussen's insights on various topics (e.g., family, patriotism, resistance, and theological method) help readers explore these areas in great detail but with an eye toward their continuing significance for Christians in the twenty-first century. An excellent resource for teaching about Bonhoeffer in any setting."" --Jim Martin-Schramm, Professor of Religion, Luther College
