The text of this book was originally delivered as a series of lectures in Berlin in the summer of '33. It can be found now in Volume 12 of the Dietrich Bonhoeffer Works Series. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the development of the maturing thought of Bonhoeffer and anyone with a healthy interest in a christology that goes beyond liberal theology to reclaim the real historical, actual Jesus of the biblical text as the Christ of faith. Bonhoeffer accomplishes this feat not in a modernistic willful ignoring of historical criticism or an ignorant by-passing of contemporary philosophical developments but by showing that both liberal theology and philosophical approaches are natural dead-ends in asking the 'how' and 'what' question concerning Christ. Rather, we should ask who Christ is. Bonhoeffer collapses the ontological question into the soteriological: Jesus Christ is Christ-pro-me. Nothing more and nothing less can be said about him.
