Written by a diverse and global group of scholars with expertise in Bonhoeffer’s theology and ethics, this volume demonstrates and interrogates Bonhoeffer’s focus on and contribution to the ethics of everyday life.
Can Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s writings improve our morality in day-to-day life? Far from being exclusively relevant to exceptional circumstances, this work reveals that Bonhoeffer’s moral vision focuses on everyday human flourishing. His work is highly relevant to yesterday, today and tomorrow.
Dallas Gingles is Assistant Dean of Hybrid Education, Associate Professor of Practice in Systematic Theology and Christian Ethics at Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University, USA.
