Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Religionless Christianity - part 10: The Working Hypothesis

While in the Tegel Prison in Berlin awaiting trial for participating in a plot to kill Hitler, Lutheran pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer began to contemplate a future for Christianity and the church in a world with science, secularism, and world wars. His idea were formulated in different letters to his pastor friend Eberhard Bethge and compiled with all his prison writings in Letters from Prison.

Part ten - In the boldest terms yet used, Bonhoeffer says that people must learn to manage our lives without God, and not expect God's actions, yet know that it is before that weak God who demands us live without him that we stand.
