Listen "The Messy Table: Rosa Parks and Dietrich Bonhoeffer"
Episode Synopsis
It may be frowned upon for religion to interfere with politics, but faith cannot avoid being involved in public life. Rob Trickey tells the stories of Rosa Parks and Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who, inspired by their faith, stood against oppressive systems and suffered the consequences. Rosa Parks was imprisoned for refusing to adhere to racial segregation. Bonhoeffer, a German Reformed pastor and theologian, was executed in a concentration camp for writing against and then conspiring to assassinate Adolf Hitler. Both made the costly decision to stand their ground against evil, knowing that they would suffer as a result.
