Communal Living, Storytelling, and the Renewal of the Mind
By creating a community with young theology students in the 1940s, Bonhoeffer emphasized communal living to strengthen spirituality, which was demonstrated when he compared his community's strength to a nearby Nazi training camp. Jesus used teaching and storytelling to convey a vision of the good life, illustrating the power of narratives to change societies. Teaching encompasses various forms such as lectures, Bible studies, podcasts, reading, meditation, and prayer, all contributing to the renewal of the mind, as highlighted by Paul's emphasis on transforming through renewing the mind in Romans.
