Bonhoeffer Study Guide and DVD

As a big fan of his, I was excited to receive the email message below from author Eric Metaxas earlier this week.

...I have filmed a Four-part Small Group Video Curriculum on Bonhoeffer! We shot it on location, mostly in Germany, but in Poland too. I talk about Bonhoeffer while sitting at his desk in the very bedroom in Berlin where he lived and was arrested, and in the backyard of that home where the gas cannisters were buried, which contained his famous Letters and Papers from Prison. I visit the site of Finkenwalde, now just over the border in Poland, and I visit the gorgeous Igel Fraternity in Tübingen where he and his father were members. I even go inside Tegel prison, which is still operating as a prison, virtually unchanged from Bonhoeffer’s time there. It will be demolished later this year.

These four DVDs and study guide are designed for small group study, whether at home or in church, and I hope they deepen your understanding of both Bonhoeffer and his work.

Here’s a short trailer for the DVD...


The video below is from Part 1 of the series...


We attend a very small church so this would be great for our Pastor's Sunday morning Bible studies. I'll definitely be bringing it to Pastor Lunneberg's attention.
