“if we can’t worship the same God together inside the same church buildings, then we will still knock on your door and so irritate you thatyou cannot worship your white God in peace, that you cannot escape thinking about the problems of segregation even on Sunday morning, that we are just letting you know that every single aspect of your Southern Way of Life is under attack.”
Stephen R. Haynes, The Last Segregated Hour: The Memphis Kneel-Ins and the Campaign for Southern Church Desegregation

“Eric Metaxas, with his populist Bonhoeffer, takes willful misuse to its extreme. Not since the death-of-God movement of the late 1960s has anyone produced so flawed, or so influential, an account of Bonhoeffer’s thought. Like those excitable pranksters—Thomas Altizer, Bishop Robinson, Gabriel Vahanian, etc.—Metaxas ignored the parts of Bonhoeffer he didn’t like and invented the parts he needed. 3 The death-of-God crowd read Letters and Papers from Prison and avoided the rest; Metaxas read portions of Discipleship and Life Together and not much else.”
Stephen R. Haynes, The Battle for Bonhoeffer

“How fortunate we are that Stephen Haynes, a distinguished scholar of the Holocaust and public theologian, has intervened in the increasingly contentious debate over Bonhoeffer’s legacy. For the past quarter century, Haynes has also been at the forefront of international Bonhoeffer scholarship, writing for”
