This year I will be sharing brief excerpts from the articles, sermons, and books I am currently reading. My posts will not follow a regular schedule but will be published as I find well-written thoughts that should be of interest to maturing Christian readers. Whenever possible, I encourage you to go to the source and read the complete work of the author.
German theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945):
“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.”

We too often allow the devil to intimidate us through the media and a culture of cynicism. Dietrich Bonhoeffer knew he must face the devil and speak even if it cost him his life.
