  • The Mystery of Holy Night
    by Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Manfred Weber, Peter Heinegg
    Hardcover, 48 pages

    Synopsis: Dietrich Bonhoeffer was imprisoned by the Gestapo in April 1943 and murdered two years later at the age of 39. These meditations--selected from his own writings and homilies--reflect on that deepest meaning of Christmas that can shine through even the darkest moments of life. The text and color artwork invite readers to share Bonhoeffer's deep faith in the reality of Christmas, no matter what our circumstances.

    Amazon.com's Philosophy and Religion Editor's Recommended Book, 12/01/97: This short but profound book is a meditation on the significance of the birth of Jesus to the lives of all Christians. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a Christian theologian executed for his role in a conspiracy to murder Hitler, seeks to unite the religious and the secular in an ethical humanism. The nativity of Christ in the manger speaks directly to this unity: it addresses a Christian's attitude toward the lowly, Christian experience--being humble in facing God and the world. "Who among us will celebrate Christmas right?" Bonhoeffer asks. He answers, "those who finally lay down all their power, honor, and prestige, all their vanity, pride, and self-will at the manger." Brief, poetic selections from two Bonhoeffer sermons, The Mystery of Holy Night provides material for meditation on the meaning of Christmas and of Christianity.
