In order to grasp the full weight of Bonhoeffer’s legacy, we need to understand the person behind the legend. In this first episode, we introduce the series and look deeply at Dietrich Bonhoeffer's early years, from his childhood and first encounters with Christianity to his adolescence and experience living in the Weimar Republic post-World War I. We begin to explore the questions, "Who was Dietrich Bonhoeffer?" and "What experiences in his life led him from a comfortable patriotic German childhood to a resistor of Nazi rule?"
