The book, a biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, was written in 2010 and foreshadowed the events of the last few years. The book discussed the silence of the church in Germany during the rise of Hitler and how it opened the door to hell on earth.

The book, a biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, was written in 2010 and foreshadowed the events of the last few years. The book discussed the silence of the church in Germany during the rise of Hitler and how it opened the door to hell on earth.
In 2010, I came out with my longest book biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the German pastor who was involved in the plot to kill Hitler.
I knew when I was writing that book that it sort of, I could smell what was happening as I was writing that book. I could smell that in our future, in the West, not just in America but in America specifically.
And of course, I documented in my Bonhoeffer book and in this new book letter to the American Church.
And the reason I wrote it in a nutshell is that in 2010, I came out with my longest book biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the German pastor who was involved in the plot to kill Hitler. I knew when I was writing that book that it sort of, I could smell what was happening as I was writing that book. I could smell that in our future, in the West, not just in America but in America specifically. And with the events of the last few years, let's say the last three years, it was impossible for me to avoid the thought that just as the silence of the church in Germany opened the door to hell on earth, which we now know because we know what happened. And of course, I documented in my Bonhoeffer book and in this new book letter to the American Church.
