In this conversation, Tripp & Jeff are joined by Dr. Reggie Williams to delve into the transformative journey of Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Williams shares Bonhoeffer’s origin story as a theologian and his profound engagement with the black church and Harlem Renaissance. They explore Bonhoeffer’s initial philosophical and theological perspectives, his experiences in New York, and the radical shift in his understanding of faith through his encounters with the black community. The conversation also explores how Bonhoeffer’s immersion in the Abyssinian Baptist Church and Harlem Renaissance influenced his views on suffering, racism, and Christian responsibility. Williams provides a nuanced view of Bonhoeffer, highlighting both his brilliance and the limitations of his ethnocentric perspectives, and examines the potential pitfalls of mythologizing historical figures without critical reflection. This episode offers deep insights into Bonhoeffer’s legacy and its relevance today.

Reggie L. Williams is an Associate Professor of Theological Studies at St. Louis University. He is the author of Bonhoeffer’s Black Jesus: Harlem Renaissance Theology and an Ethic of Resistance,” which was selected as a Choice Outstanding Title in 2015 in the field of religion. The book focuses on Bonhoeffer’s exposure to Harlem Renaissance intellectuals and worship at Harlem’s Abyssinian Baptist during his time at Union Seminary in New York from 1930 to 1931. He recently released the documentary film “The Cloud of Witnesses: Dietrich Bonhoeffer in Harlem 1930/31.”
