S3E6 Secular Christ | Dietrich Bonhoeffer, invisible Christianity and it's church
In the final episode of this season of searching for the seeds of Secular Christianity, we travel to the 20th century to learn from the German Protestant theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
We explore his concept of religionless Christianity which developed as he sat imprisoned in Berlin by the Nazi regime for his resistance, and before his execution. McGrath continues to link back to Augustines idea of the invisible church and coins the term invisible Christianity. -

They were not commemorating something that was past. They were actually witnessing something that is coming to be. - Sean J McGrath and Jakob Lusensky go seeking for the seeds of Secular Christianity.
