One of the opening lines in Cost Of Discipleship reads "Cheap grace is the deadly enemy of our church. We are fighting today for costly grace." Such is the book's theme.
The title is around 300 pages contains the major areas:
1. Grace And Discipleship.
2. The Sermon On The Mount.
3. The Messengers.
4. The Church Of Jesus Christ And The Life Of Discipleship.
Bonhoeffer makes many good points and speaks with moral authority - he was executed for his faith by Nazi Germany just days before World War 2 ended.
However, I agree with an earlier reviewer concerning the writing style. At times the writing was hard to follow and an updated version (as with other Christian classics) would be great.
Still, a good read. Be challenged and encouraged!
