Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.
-Dietrich Bonhoeffer
I have had this book sitting on the shelf in my office for several weeks. I can’t imagine sitting down and reading it cover to cover. Instead, I have chosen to read it in sections. I still have a bit to go before it is finished. The Cost of Discipleship by Bonhoeffer radically changed my thinking on what it means to truly follow Christ. To now read such a compelling story of Bonhoeffer in his roles as pastor, martyr, prophet, and spy has been a great adventure. I’d encourage you to pick up a copy of this book at your first chance.
