Bonhoeffer for today

Lutheran theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who was martyred by the Nazis, once said that "only he who cries out for the Jews can also sing Gregorian chants."

In a world in which politicians can somehow claim to be Christian and yet be pro-choice, distinguished Lutheran journalist and author Uwe Siemon-Netto, scholar-in-residence at the Concordia Seminary Institute for Lay Vocation, aptly paraphrases Bonhoeffer in making the same point to our society that Bonhoeffer made to his.
