This book grew directly out of his own experience of the deep meaning of Christian community found in life together in an "underground" seminary established by the Con fessing Church. What this experience should mean in the corporate fellowship os today's Christian is her movingly documented by one whose peculiar strength lies in great religious ideas expressed in simple, incisive, almost Biblical language.
To Pastor Bonhoeffer, the Christian today is living in a world fully as hostile ans as pagan as that in which Paul and the early Christians moved. Sustaining the Christian fellowship is therefore all-important, and this is what gives Life Together its meaning and purpose.
It is a piece of exposition that, for our modern age, is as real and as relevant as the letters of St. Paul himself.
Likewise, it makes the faith of the avarage curch-goer seem a very pale shadow of what Christianity was meant to be.
The book is primarily a consideration of the meaning of Christian community, with some practical illustrations of how this life together in Christ works out in the family circle or in groups, containing some pointed directions for common worship. It algo discusses the life of the Christian at his job, when he must leave the fellowship to do hsi work in the world, and the place of private devotions. Then fellows a gem of simple exposition of Christian service and our relationship to our "neighbor." Finally comes a stirring discussion of "confession and the Lord's Supper."
