Book • 2014

This biography by Eric Metaxas explores the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German pastor and theologian who actively resisted the Nazi regime.

The book delves into Bonhoeffer's decision to leave the safety of America to return to Germany, his involvement in the Valkyrie plot to assassinate Hitler, and his efforts in 'Operation 7' to smuggle Jews into neutral Switzerland.
