Abstract

This chapter explores a non-dualistic reading of Dietrich Bonhoeffer grounded in Bonhoeffer’s own rejection of God-world dualism in his Ethics, his insistence there that God and world are one reality in Jesus Christ, not two. I take this conviction as a methodological lens for interpreting Bonhoeffer himself, surfacing pieces of his thinking that contribute to a larger non-dualistic vision of God and world in Jesus Christ and critiquing aspects that fall into the dualism he has rejected. In this way, I show how reading according to this criterion can generate an ecologically fruitful theology of God-world reality in Jesus Christ.
