Life Together

Good book for a book club, easy to do a chapter a week.
Great short book from Bonhoeffer that bring a greater understanding to the nature and purpose of Christian discipleship and community. Bonhoeffer is a great author to write about this topic as this book was written after he lived for 25 years in Christian community. This book illuminates how Bonhoeffer is not a optimist or theorist but was a realist, being someone who has actually lived it and done it, and implemented everything he talked about and was dedicated to practical reality at all times and he gives practical implementable ideas.

Bonhoeffer continually describes how community (both with other Christians and not) is essential in the life of a Christian and how it is meant to be real and raw, not just fun, but allows for growth in difficult times or in conflict how to love others because Christ so loved us. Throughout the book, it is thought-provoking writing.
