Brant HansenHOST
okay dietrich bonhoeffer even said that too he's like if we're gonna all meet in the living room and go okay let's be close let's share didn't work like that kind of kills it that's true but he said what actually does make community is when you're going through something together this is why like soldiers are so tight when they get back they're in the foxhole together they've been through an experience Or if you have a shared mission.
Brant HansenHOST
So you're doing things together, not face-to-face, like, hey, let's share, but actually have a mission.
Brant HansenHOST
That's true.

Jack HibbsHOST
Oh, just think where we would have been right now.
Jack HibbsHOST
We would have all been running right to Noah and said, how was it? What was it like? Running over to Paul and shaking his hand and Martin Luther and Dietrich Bonhoeffer and saying hi to Charles Spurgeon.
Jack HibbsHOST
Dwight L. Moody.
Jack HibbsHOST
wondering is he as fat as he was in heaven as he was on earth? Wow.
Jim RamosHOST
That was chosen.
Jim RamosHOST
You know, that was, I don't want to say I chose it, but I mean, God comes in and he, was it, you quoted Bonhoeffer in the book.
Jim RamosHOST
And was it Bonhoeffer that said the call to follow Christ is the call to death? Was that Bonhoeffer? I think it might've been.
Jim RamosHOST
Yeah,
Granger SmithGUEST
that's right.
India ParrisGUEST
Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful.'" The definition of mercy is compassion, leniency, or restraint as an imposing punishment shown specifically to an offender or to one subject to the power of another, or compassionate treatment of those in distress.
India ParrisGUEST
How are we to live out this mercy? When I think of someone who lived out the mercy of Jesus, I think of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German Lutheran pastor who lived in the United States at the start of World War II.
India ParrisGUEST
He had immigrated over and had started a new life away from Germany.
India ParrisGUEST
He was comfortable.
Michael PenfoldHOST
The churches were hand-in-hand with Hitler.
Michael PenfoldHOST
Just read the story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, one of the few who said, I'm not going to back Hitler and got tragically shot by a firing squad a few weeks before the Second World War ended.
Michael PenfoldHOST
And then the church after the war ended, oh, we're so sorry that we joined up with Hitler.
Michael PenfoldHOST
Normal, Western, rational, scientific people joined up with Hitler and gassed the Jews and went back home at night and played Strauss waltzes and danced together.
Stuart WinogradGUEST
He said, it's not your business, just call.
Stuart WinogradGUEST
So Dietrich Bonhoeffer was one of the few German pastors that stood up against the Nazis and said, no, this is evil, this is not God's way, and he stood up against anti-Semitism, and so we need all of our non-Jewish brothers and sisters to be modern-day Bonhoeffers in Messianic congregations and churches and call your friends in a loving way to stand.
Stuart WinogradGUEST
in whatever way God puts on their heart, to stand against this hate in prayer, in personal conversations, in peaceful, godly ways in the public forum.
Stuart WinogradGUEST
You know, and I want to be clear, this is not about politics, and you need to take what I'm saying now because this is where people trap you.
Graham Joseph HillHOST
He saw it in Rome and he saw it in himself.
Graham Joseph HillHOST
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, writing from a Berlin prison cell with a Nazi noose, Describe Jesus as the man for others, as the human for others, wholly turned outward, free from himself and available to everyone else.
Graham Joseph HillHOST
And said that the church is only the church when it exists for others.
Graham Joseph HillHOST
Be a man, be a woman, be a person for others.

Graham Joseph HillHOST
He argues that men need a positive vision of what they're for, which is exactly the argument that I have made from scripture.
Graham Joseph HillHOST
Read it if you want the evidence laid out soberly.
Graham Joseph HillHOST
The second is Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Letters and Papers from Prison.
Graham Joseph HillHOST
This is where the phrase, the man for others, comes from.
Nick GoughGUEST
I choose to love.
Nick GoughGUEST
And I have to, that's the way of the cross, right? You know, like Bonhoeffer says, the cross beckoned ones to come and die.
Nick GoughGUEST
Like I'm dying to myself.
Nick GoughGUEST
It's not about me.
