"The church is only Church if it is for others .... you must participate in the secular activities of human society.." Today marks
the birthday of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, which is a good opportunity to remember him. Bonhoeffer currently enjoys great popularity and he is rediscovering the world (interestingly, even in America). It is precisely the emergent movement discovered the explosive power of his theology again from scratch. Although one must honestly say that Bonhoeffer somehow to each one. And no matter how conservative or liberal is someone with Bonhoeffer seem to take all, so there is even a collection of this great theologian, what is a paradox in itself. No matter, his life and work, it is always worth to have inspired. Be it his challenges to "common life" , his interpretation of the Sermon on the Mount or perhaps his latest thoughts on "Church for others". Bonhoeffer is always read existentially, and this makes it equally important as challenging.
