As we start to name an aspect of his existence which long remained unspoken, namely his engagement and wrestling with his own identity as inhabiting a white body, interpreting and understanding Dietrich Bonhoeffer today is perhaps more complex than ever. The White Bonhoeffer offers the first serious attempt to understand the theologian’s doctrine and writing through the lens of critical whiteness. Through ongoing attentiveness to Black theologies of liberation, and the life and thought of Bonhoeffer, and drawing on both theological concepts and the author’s own personal narrative, the book highlights and offers some constructive ways towards living less violently, and more penitently, for those who inhabit White bodies in a White world.

This wide-ranging book examines Bonhoeffer through the prism of problems facing the modern world.Our digital and globalised era has facilitated multiple and instantaneous connections between individuals and communities. Yet rather than drawing us closer together, the rise of political extremism and mental health conditions in the Western world suggests that many people are becoming increasingly isolated and disenfranchised, unable to listen and understand one another in genuine, mutual freedom. These basic aspects of human life, which are necessary for everyone’s flourishing, indicate part of what is crucial for Christians who seek to live “for others” today, as God in Christ is “for us”.Tackling these issues are essays by contributors who have an established academic career, as well as others who offer creative insights to the Bonhoeffer guild, which would benefit from these fresh voices, lest Bonhoeffer’s legacy is turned in on itself, when like the church, it should exist “for others”.

Throughout the Psalms we witness David cry out for deliverance in seasons of anguish and grief, seeking refuge and strength from the Lord. Likewise, Jesus petitioned God in the garden of Gethsemane for strength in a time of dire need. The cries from both David and Jesus to God reflect the forgotten spiritual discipline of lament. Lament is not sorrow without ultimate hope--that is despair. Rather, lament is trust in God despite and even by way of the experience of hopelessness.In Awake in Gethsemane Tim Judson envisions the place and meaning of lament for the Christian community through close engagement with the life and work of Dietrich Bonhoeffer. After documenting the historical decline and current lack of lament within much of the Western Church, Judson offers a threefold approach to the subject, arguing that a basis for lament is necessarily located in theology, ethics, and liturgy interdependently. This relationship frames the critical work carried out alongside Bonhoeffer, interpreting lament through his Christology, ecclesiology, and biblical exegesis. A constructive lamentology emerges, aimed to facilitate the church's engagement with some critical contemporary issues.Judson presents lament as a faithful aspect of the truly human life which, in and through Christ, is for and with others. Lament is a means by which disciples stay "awake with Christ in Gethsemane" in a wounded world where sin, suffering, and sorrow abide. Such an outlook challenges prevalent ideological horizons and common presuppositions about lament which preclude or distort this crucial spiritual discipline. Hence, Judson opens new imaginative possibilities for construing lament positively and creatively, witnessing to the reality that faithful freedom is embodied perfectly by the lamenting Jesus himself, who, by way of his own lament, is the salvation of the world.
