Explore "The Things that are Above" by Dietrich Bonhoeffer on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Berlin, Fourth Sunday after Trinity, June 19, 1932.
Bonhoeffer had preached the previous Sunday on these verses from the apostle Paul's letter to Christians in Colossae (see page 41). But he had taken so much time that day in presenting his clear view of the contemporary world that he still had much more to say. So he asked his colleague Gerhard Jacobi, for whom he was substituting, to let him preach again on the same text.
