What is it about his work in <a href="https://homebrewedchristianity.lpages.co/bonfuturechurch/"></a>a different era that still engages some of the most cutting edge theological work done today? Join us for the new Homebrewed Christianity class, “Bonhoeffer and the Future of Faith” as we listen to and learn from internationally known scholars working in areas such as climate change, prison reform, racial tensions, pastoral care, and Christian Nationalism. These scholars, generations removed from Bonhoeffer’s day, find inspiration in him for the continuing task of theology to interpret and respond to global challenges in our day. Together this class will think about Bonhoeffer’s enduring question to the church of his day, “What is Christianity for us today?” How we are responding in our time to this question will determine the shape of faith for our day and beyond.<br> <br> <a href="https://followthepodcast.com/hbc">Follow the podcast, drop a review</a>, or become a <a href="https://trippfuller.com/community/">member of the HBC Community</a>.<a href="https://followthepodcast.com/hbc"><br> <br> </a><br> <br> <a href="https://theonlygodordainedsurvey.com/emptyaltars/"></a><a class="fancybox image" href="https://trippfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Easter-Stories_Crossan_square-with-text_01.png" data-featherlight="image"></a><br> <br> <br>
