Dietrich Bonhoeffer

[edie19]

Saw this in my local paper - I'm guessing most PBS stations will broadcast this at approximately the same time.

HONORING BONHOEFFER: The Rev. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, not just a great thinker and theologian but a courageous individual, was born 100 years ago Friday in Breslau, Germany. He stood up to the Nazi regime and paid for it with his life. He was hanged on April 9, 1945, at the Flossenburg concentration camp, for helping the Jews escape Germany and for his leadership in the anti-Nazi Confessing Church movement . In honor of the centenary of his birth, Public Broadcasting Stations around the country will be showing Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Pacifist, Nazi Resistor. Locally, the program will air at 10 p.m. Feb. 6 on WGTE-TV (Channel 30) and WBGU-TV (Channel 27).

Looks like I will watch this since I have some of his books and he is one of my personal "Hall of Faith" heroes. I don't generally agree with some of his theology but one of my favorite books is "Cost of Discipleship".
