The Radical Call: Beyond Comfortable Religion
When Dietrich Bonhoeffer walked to his execution by the Nazis in 1945, he could have been safely teaching theology in America. Instead, he chose to return to Germany to oppose Hitler's regime. His most influential work, "The Cost of Discipleship," challenges us to examine whether our faith demands anything of us or merely comforts us in our complacency. Written as fascism was rising in 1937, this prophetic text distinguishes between "cheap grace" and "costly grace" - a distinction that has challenged millions across generations. What if the Christianity many of us practice bears little resemblance to what Jesus actually taught? What if we've domesticated a radical message into something safe and comfortable?
