Creation and Fall Temptation: Two Biblical Studies by Dietrich Bonhoeffer

4.0

In my faith journey, one of my biggest points of doubt has always been how God came to be. Believing in a creator has never been a problem, but how did God get there? Boenhoffer’s deep dive, specifically into the first few verses of Genesis was really helpful to read. It may not have completely satisfied those doubts, but definitely quelled it a bit.

It was also interesting to read about the fall/ curse/ and promise these last few days leading up into the start of Lent. Reading his sermon on “from dust you came, and to dust you will return” as I get ready to go to an Ash Wednesday service was completely unplanned, but was perfect timing to get my heart ready for it.
