In 'Life Together,' Dietrich Bonhoeffer explores the practical and theological aspects of Christian community.

It is divided into five chapters: Community, The Day with Others, The Day Alone, Ministry, and Confession and Communion.

Bonhoeffer stresses the need for balance between solitude and community, the importance of mutual confession and forgiveness, and the role of Christ as the foundation of Christian fellowship.
