Dietrich Bonhoeffer s sphere of influence seems to expand almost daily as I read about his life and theology online and in books Engaging Bonhoeffer The Impact and Influence of Bonhoeffer s Life and Thought edited by Matthew D Kirkpatrick is a collection of essays showing how Bonhoeffer s influence extends into many and sometimes disparate strands of thought into our time and certainly beyond. Book Engaging bonhoeffer dietrich Engaging Bonhoeffer is a delight to read Having read many books on Bonhoeffer and related works by now I feel especially joyful when some fresh analysis or aspect of his thought is brought to light that I had not considered before The authors in this collection bring many such moments as they demonstrate how many others have carried the torch of Bonhoeffer s legacy and at times done so with critical engagement Though it is true most collections of essays have ups and downs this one seems to be a collection of hits. Engaging Bonhoeffer pdffiller The essay on liberation theology may surprise some given the recent push to attempt to integrate Bonhoeffer s legacy into a contemporary American evangelical fold Bonhoeffer s deep and repeated exegesis of biblical passages having to do with the poor the oppressed and is set alongside the fact that Bonhoeffer himself was no less than the bourgeois of the bourgeois Geffrey B Kelly and Matthew D Kirkpatrick show how despite his background Bonhoeffer transcended his own privileged place to be named in some strands of liberation theology as a precursor to the movement and by others as an early liberation theologian Bonhoeffer s inclusion in the movement by those who are in the movement is due the authors note to at least two things the uncompromising position Bonhoeffer takes in regards to God s suffering with those who are suffering and his unwillingness to cede theology to broad metaphysics and abstraction rather than reality at hand. Engaging bonhoefferplatz Another contribution by Kirkpatrick Situations Contexts and Responsibility Bonhoeffer s Ethics in the Thought of Joseph Fletcher Paul Lehmann and H Richard Niebuhr fascinates with the examination of Bonhoeffer s ethics set alongside a subjective theory of ontology Kirkpatrick notes that while Bonhoeffer has similar thinking to much of situational ethics he also does ground his ethics objectively in the person of Christ The essay was a challenging read as it also presents the possibility for a way forward in the broad debate over Bonhoeffer s views on pacifism and how to interpret some seemingly contradictory ideas Is it possible that instead Bonhoeffer may consistently be understood through a lens of situation ethics The chapter on Karl Barth shows that Barth struggled much of his life to make sense of Bonhoeffer s legacy and Bonhoeffer s own interactions and comments upon his Barth s work The essay on Bonhoeffer and Jurgen Moltmann shows how some thinkers have critically interacted with Bonhoeffer building some ideas and offering criticism of others Another essay on the death of god theologians shows how some of Bonhoeffer s language was co opted for purposes certainly beyond his intent but that do highlight some aspects that he may have pursued if he d had the chance.

Engaging Bonhoeffer pdfescape T Robinson Eberhard Jungel Gerhard Ebeling Paul Ricouer and Jean Yves Lacoste My own familiarity with some of these is effectively nothing so having Bonhoeffer s thought linked to them and expanded was fascinating as a way of demonstrating his far reaching legacy and the many little substantial scholarship has been conducted in this area In this magisterial collection leading international scholars fill this striking gap and critically demonstrate the ways in which Bonhoeffer has been one of the most original inspirational and provocative writers of the twentieth century Bonhoeffers work has proved foundational for a wide variety of thinkers and movements across such areas as ecclesiology Christology spirituality ethics hermeneutics phenomenology epistemology and systematic theology generally Whether one considers his writings to have been faithfully interpreted critically adopted or justifiably rejected Engaging Bonhoeffer describes those who have engaged with Bonhoeffers work been inspired by his actions and found a way to express and explain their own ideas through interacting with his life and thought In addition to shedding light on the different theological trajectories that Bonhoeffers work may forge this challenging volume offers a critical window through which to view and appreciate the ideas of many leading voices of modern theology Engaging Bonhoeffer The Impact and Influence of Bonhoeffers Life and Thought.
