Nothing can be more cruel than the leniency which abandons others to their sin. Nothing can be more compassionate than the severe reprimand which calls another Christian in oneโs community back from the path of sin.
Dietrich BonhoefferThrough our daily meals He is calling us to rejoice, to keep holiday in the midst of our working day.
Dietrich BonhoefferThe richness of Godโs Word ought to determine our prayer, not the poverty of our heart.
Dietrich BonhoefferChrist became our Brother in order to help us. Through him our brother has become Christ for us in the power and authority of the commission Christ has given him. Our brother stands before us the sign of the truth and the grace of God. He has been given to us to help us. He hears the confession of our sins in Christ's stead and he forgives our sins in Christ's name. He keeps the secret of our confession as God keeps it. When I go to my brother to confess, I am going to God.
