"Daily, quiet reflection on the Word of God as it applies to me becomes for me a point of crystallization for everything that gives interior and exterior order to my life," wrote Dietrich Bonhoeffer to his colleagues at the warfront in the winter of 1942. Now back in print after a decade, this collection of Bonhoeffer's writings, sermons, and letters on meditation-including his unfinished meditation on Psalm 119-reveals his deep love for the Bible as a focus for his prayer life and a support in his courageous political life. "Why do I meditate?" asks Bonhoeffer. "Because I am a Christian. Therefore, every day in which I do not penetrate more deeply into the knowledge of God's Word in Holy Scripture is a lost day for me."
Autorenporträt
Dietrich Bonhoeffer nasceu em Breslau, Alemanha, em 4 de fevereiro de 1906. Teólogo e pastor luterano, participou da resistência alemã antinazista e foi membro fundador da Igreja Confessante (ala da igreja evangélica contrária à política nazista), onde atuou como reitor e professor. Após o fechamento do seminário pelos nazistas, Bonhoeffer militou no movimento de resistência a Hitler. Em 1943, foi preso, acusado de envolver-se na trama da Abwehr para assassinar Hitler, e acabou enforcado em 9 de abril de 1945, na cidade de Berlim, semanas antes do término do conflito mundial na Europa.
