Every time I finish a Bonhoeffer book I have to really restrain myself from simply rambling about how much I adore him and what he has done for me. This collection of sermons is no exception. God has used Bonhoeffer’s theology, encouragement, and his life in leading by example to draw me closer to Himself.

As one who has read avidly the works of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, as well as books about his life, I'm always intrigued by new offerings. This is a collection of sermons preached by Dietrich Bonhoeffer and taken from the Collected Works. Edited and introduced by Isabel Best, one of the translators for that project, this is a most useful introduction to Bonhoeffer's early thinking. I say early because the majority of these sermons were preached prior to 1935, while he was still in his 20s. They lack the radicalness of his works from the war years, and even have a pietistic sense to them. Still, they reveal to us something of his deep Christian spirituality.
