I finished this tonight sitting on the back patio, listening to the birds, and enjoying our little slice of nature. I admire Bonhoeffer and there‘s a lot of wisdom in this slim book. His German idiosyncrasies do come through, as when he said “we should train ourselves to set apart for it a regular hour for [meditation] as we do for every other service we perform. This is not ‘legalism‘; it is orderliness and fidelity.” But much here is universal.
