Description
Summary:The following article compares Bonhoeffer's writings on "religionless Christianity" with the opinion, common among evangelicals, that Christianity is not about "religion," based on a study of members of the Vineyard Church in T.M. Lurhmann's When God Talks Back. While there are important similarities between Bonhoeffer and the evangelical rejection of religion, the article argues that the two theologies part ways on a number of points, most importantly concerning the theology of suffering.
