Engaging with Dietrich Bonhoeffer's insights, Barry Harvey critiques the superficiality of modern society's this-worldliness, shaped by social technologies of religion, culture, and race. He argues that true Christian engagement involves embracing the profound this-worldliness exemplified by Jesus Christ, which calls for discipline and an understanding of death and resurrection. The church embodies this new humanity, echoing biblical themes. Bonhoeffer's resistance to Hitler contrasts with a French church's legacy of saving lives, highlighting the different expressions of faith in challenging times.
