Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a German Lutheran pastor, theologian, and key figure in the German Resistance against Nazism.

He helped establish the Confessing Church and was involved in plans to assassinate Hitler.

This led to his arrest in 1943 and execution by hanging in April 1945, just before the war's end.

Bonhoeffer's theology emphasized Christianity's role in the secular world, which has become highly influential.

His commitment to his faith and resistance against the Nazi regime, even at the cost of his life, has cemented his place as a significant 20th-century Christian thinker and martyr.
