Discipleship and Unity: Bonhoeffer's Ecumenical Theology presents a fresh approach to church unity and discipleship from a familiar voice. Building constructively from the thought of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Cole Jodon offers an account of ecumenism in which the church is understood to be united as the person of Christ -- a unity that is concrete today through active obedient discipleship. To develop this theology, Jodon draws from Bonhoeffer's ecumenical engagement, which is deepened through the theology of Bonhoeffer's wider corpus. Jodon illumines Bonhoeffer's dynamic understanding of the church, its unity, and the manner in which that unity is made concrete in the world. At its heart, this book serves to advance an ecumenical theology enlivened by the living and present Christ who calls his church to follow after him together.
