But to procrastinate and prevaricate simply because you're afraid of erring, when others - I mean our brethren in Germany - must make infinitely more difficult decisions every day, seems to me almost to run counter to love. To delay or fail to make decisions may be more sinful than to make wrong decisions out of faith and love.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer 481 quotes

After he has been following Ch...

After he has been following Christ for a long time, the disciple of Jesus will be asked, 'Lacked ye anything?' and he will answer 'Nothing, Lord.' How could he when he knows that despite hunger and nakedness, persecution and danger, the Lord is always at his side?

Dietrich Bonhoeffer 481 quotes

I discovered later, and I'm still discovering right up to this moment, that is it only by living completely in this world that one learns to have faith. By this-worldliness I mean living unreservedly in life's duties, problems, successes and failures. In so doing we throw ourselves completely into the arms of God, taking seriously, not our own sufferings, but those of God in the world. That, I think, is faith.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer 481 quotes

When all is said and done, the...

When all is said and done, the life of faith is nothing if not an unending struggle of the spirit with every available weapon against the flesh.

It is only with gratitude that life becomes rich!

Fulfilled life is possible in spite of unfulfilled wishes.

I believe that nothing that happens to me is meaningless and that it is good for us all that it should be so, even if it runs counter to our own wishes. As I see it, I'm here for some purpose, and I only hope I may fulfill it.

Man has learned to cope with all questions of importance without recourse to God as a working hypothesis.

The more deeply we grow into the psalms and the more often we pray them as our own, the more simple and rich will our prayer become.

Whenever the Psalter is abandoned, an incomparable treasure is lost to the Christian church. With its recovery will come unexpected power.

Earthly possessions dazzle our eyes and delude us into thinking that they can provide security and freedom from anxiety. Yet all the time they are the very source of anxiety.

It seems to me more important actually to share someones distress than to use smooth words about it.

There is meaning in every journey that is unknown to the traveler.

Cheap grace is the grace we be...

Cheap grace is the grace we bestow on ourselves. Cheap grace is the preaching of forgiveness without requiring repentance, baptism without church discipline, Communion without confession.... Cheap grace is grace without discipleship, grace without the cross, grace without Jesus Christ, living and incarnate.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer 481 quotes

We are silent at the beginning...

We are silent at the beginning of the day because God should have the first word, and we are silent before going to sleep because the last word also belongs to God.

The church is her true self only when she exists for humanity.

The deceit, the lie of the dev...

The deceit, the lie of the devil consists of this, that he wishes to make man believe that he can live without God's Word. Thus he dangles before man's fantasy a kingdom of faith, of power, and of peace, into which only he can enter who consents to the temptations; and conceals from men that he, as the devil, is the most unfortunate and unhappy of beings, since he is finally and eternally rejected by God.

When Christ calls a man, he bids him come and die.

Cheap grace is the deadly enemy of our church. We are fighting today for costly grace.

Love asks nothing in return, but seeks those who need it. And who needs our love more than those who are consumed with hatred and are utterly devoid of love.
