Eric Metaxas is the author of the New York Times bestseller Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy, 7 Men and the Secret of Their Greatness, and thirty children’s books.

Heed the call to live out your faith---heroically and with joy! Invoking the same themes as Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Metaxas advocates the rejection of religiosity and promotes embracing an active faith that consumes every aspect of a person's life. Such actions will bring revival and "new birth" to a waning Christian culture. 140 pages, hardcover from Salem Books.

The author of a bestselling biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Metaxas reveals the haunting similarities between today’s American Church and the German Church of the 1930s. Echoing the German martyr’s prophetic call, he exhorts his fellow Christians to repent of their silence in the face of evil.

An attenuated and unbiblical "faith" based on what Bonhoeffer called "cheap grace" has sapped the spiritual vitality of millions of Americans. Paying lip service to an insipid "evangelism," they shrink from combating the evils of our time. Metaxas refutes the pernicious lie that fighting evil politicizes Christianity. As Bonhoeffer and other heroes of the faith insisted, the Church has an irreplaceable role in the culture of a nation. It is our duty to fight the powers of darkness, especially on behalf of the weak and vulnerable.

A dynamic look at the life of German theologian and martyr Dietrich Bonhoeffer! Featuring rare archival footage and interviews with family and friends, this powerful documentary explores Bonhoeffer's association with underground seminaries, his travels to America where he developed his ideas on social justice, his courageous stand against Hitler, and his execution by the Nazis. Dove faith-friendly (12+). Closed-captioned. Approx. 92 minutes.
