Description
Then came the crisis of 1933. This is Bonhoeffers own phrase in a letter that documents a turning point in his own life as well as that of the nation. Of Bonhoeffers own life at this time, his biographer writes, The period of learning and roaming from 1928 until 1931 had come to an end as the young lecturer, age 26, began to teach on a faculty whose theology he did not share and to preach in a church whose self-confidence he regarded as unfounded. Bonhoeffer was becoming part of a society that was moving toward political, social, and economic chaos.
