Cost of Discipleship

Book • 1937
In 'The Cost of Discipleship,' Dietrich Bonhoeffer challenges readers to question their understanding of true discipleship.

He distinguishes between 'cheap grace,' which is forgiveness without repentance or commitment, and 'costly grace,' which demands obedience, sacrifice, and a genuine transformation of the believer's life.

The book delves into the Sermon on the Mount, emphasizing the Beatitudes and the righteousness that Christ demands from his followers.

Bonhoeffer also highlights the importance of community, forgiveness, and love in the context of Christian discipleship.

He argues that true discipleship involves following Christ even in the face of opposition and persecution, and that it requires a radical inward transformation and a commitment to deny self and follow Jesus.
