When Our Words Are Hijacked: The Case of Bonhoeffer, Jesus, and Misguided Followers

  • Summary

  • Jamin Bradley, a pastor and theologian, argues that the words of important figures like Jesus and Dietrich Bonhoeffer are often misinterpreted and misused. He uses the January 6th insurrection as an example of how words can be misinterpreted to incite violence, rather than to promote understanding. Bradley points out that conservative author Eric Metaxas has misrepresented Bonhoeffer's legacy, portraying him as a right-wing figure who would have supported conservative politics, which Bradley argues is inaccurate. Bradley emphasizes the importance of studying the context and character of individuals to avoid misinterpreting their words and using them for harmful purposes.
