Services for Holy Week with a series of addresses by The Right Revd Martin Shaw:

‘The Cost of Discipleship’ – The Passion of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Pastor, Theologian and Dissident

Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906 to 1945) was a key founding member of The Confessing Church in Germany. Bonhoeffer focused on Christianity’s role in a secular world. Resisting Nazi dictatorship, including its genocidal anti-semitism, he was imprisoned, during which he wrote his most famous work through letters and papers. On being moved to a concentration camp, he was executed by hanging. Bishop Martin’s three addresses will be looking at what Bonhoeffer saw as the cost of being a disciple of Christ, which has even more significance in our time.
