The man behind the curtain
- Damien
- I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."

Bonhoeffer was a very brave man but I can't quite grasp the meaning of this qoute.
Was it possibly a rebuff to 'arbeit macht frei', posted at the entrance to Auschwitz?
Bazza’s Blog ‘To Discover Ice’
so good to hear fgrom you again my friend.
i think most of us think of difficulty and painful effort in connection with the word discipleship. bonhoeffer is challenging these associations. great love, great joy, great hope, and great peace are promised to all who will take up their cross and follow the lord jesus christ.
but you may have a very good point
regarding the sign at auschwitz.
