The Rise of BonhoefferAuthor: Tripp Fuller
Are you ready to embark on an inspiring and informative journey alongside Dietrich Bonhoeffer - one of the most courageous people in modern history? In this audio documentary series, we'll dive deep into the life of the German theologian who dared to stand against the Nazi regime. From his early days as a passionate scholar to his evolution into a bold leader of the Confessing Church, we'll trace Bonhoeffer's path as he wrestled with the moral and ethical challenges of his time. You'll discover how his theological insights, such as the concept of costly grace, shaped his resistance to Hitler and inspired a generation of believers to act with courage and conviction. Throughout the series, our hosts, Dr. Jeffrey Pugh and Dr. Tripp Fuller, will be joined by a host of renowned academic scholars of Bonhoeffer. Our goal is to bring the complexity and hard-won nuance of the ivory tower in a compelling and engaging to the listener, so the powerful story of Bonhoeffer can be engaged anew.

Pugh doesn't pull punches in this powerful preview lecture for Theology Beer Camp 2025.
