In a world not too far removed from our past, a young pastor and author named Dietrich Bonhoeffer and a small group of dissidents worked tirelessly to dismantle the Third Reich as Adolf Hitler and the Nazis attempted to exterminate the Jews of Europe and beyond.

Rather than flee to the safer haven of America, Bonhoeffer instead chose to uphold his moral convictions and risk it all to save millions of Jews from genocide. His decision ultimately proved to be fatal, yet his lifelong dedication to sharing the tenets of his faith will always be remembered for his moral courage to save millions of Jews from genocide.

Filmmaker Todd Komarnicki has directed a new movie on the life of Bonhoeffer called “Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin.” Set to release on November 22nd, the movie explores the theologian’s decision to shift from preaching peace to plotting murder, an honorable crime that could alter the course of history.

The movie features a notable cast that includes Jonas Dassler, August Diehl, and Moritz Breibtreu.
It’s amazing to think that one voice can become the loudest rebellion. But that is exactly what Dietrich Bonhoeffer did.

Komarnicki joins us to talk about what fueled this hero to take a stand that subsequently led to his execution in 1945. Listen as he shares about the role that Faith played in Bonhoeffer's life and decision making process.
