Ebook The Communion of Saints

In fact Bonhoeffer was never interested in making his writings better known. He never drew the attention Of his students to them. The book Sanctorum Communia soon disappeared from his view, because he was too heavily engaged with the thing itself, the sanctorum communia. He was always ready to describe the thing itself in a new way. For this very reason it is both exciting and rewarding for us to read how Bonhoeffer regarded the church when he began his work, and to see what his answers were then. Both continuity and discontinuity can be seen.
