Unbelievers: Secular Faith and the End of the Culture War

Sitting in his prison cell, Dietrich Bonhoeffer wrote a letter to a friend describing a new expression of Christian faith: religionless Christianity. In the middle of a destructive war, Bonhoeffer expressed a vision for Christian faith that went beyond doctrine and piety--beyond the sacred/secular divide. Today, his vision offers a way out of the current battles over politics and religion toward a version of Christian faith that embraces life in this world. Unbelievers takes the reader from Berlin to Assisi and Copenhagen, searching for a spirituality that embraces this finite human life, not as something to be left behind, but as an expression of God's love and grace.
