Church & Politics: Just downloaded the Kindle version of Costly Grace, by Rob Schenck, who played a pivotal role in forging the alliance between evangelicals & the Republican party. He “is now a voice for ethical reform in evangelicalism & public policy”.
Rob Schenck, what caused you to change your mind?
“I rediscovered the life & writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German theologian and evangelical pastor who was executed … for his opposition to Adolf Hitler … I looked at the evangelical church [in Germany] during the time in which he lived … I saw in those times a reflection of our own … What happened to the German Christians was happening to us.”
