Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Bonhoeffer's theology of 'religionless Christianity' and costly grace developed in the crucible of the Nazi period, culminating in his execution for involvement in the plot against Hitler. The Letters and Papers from Prison are the most moving theological documents of the 20th century.
