Our struggle today is for costly grace.\" And with that sharp warning to his own church, which was engaged in bitter conflict with the official nazified state church, Dietrich Bonhoeffer began his book \u003ci\u003eDiscipleship\u003c\/i\u003e (formerly entitled \u003ci\u003eThe Cost of Discipleship\u003c\/i\u003e). Originally published in 1937, it soon became a classic exposition of what it means to follow Christ in a modern world beset by a dangerous and criminal government. At its center stands an interpretation of the Sermon on the Mount: what Jesus demanded of his followersand how the life of discipleship is to be continued in all ages of the post- resurrection church.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Every call of Jesus is a call to death,\" Bonhoeffer wrote. His own life ended in martyrdom on April 9, 1945.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFreshly translated from the German critical edition, \u003ci\u003eDiscipleship\u003c\/i\u003e provides a more accurate rendering of the text and extensive aids and commentary to clarify the meaning, context, and reception of this work and its attempt to resist the Nazi ideology then infecting German Christian churches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dietrich Bonhoeffer, John D.
