We remember Dietrich Bonhoeffer as a person, as a theologian and as a resistance fighter. He had a hope without limits. That is why the ELKB's 2025 commemorative year will have this motto: #boundlesshope

Diedrich Bonhoeffer
Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906 -1945) was a Protestant theologian of the 20th century who had a profound influence on the church and society.
On April 9, 1945, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was murdered in the Flossenbürg concentration camp along with other resistance fighters against the Nazi regime.
His violent death will be commemorated 80 years ago on April 9, 2025. The Evangelical-Lutheran Church in Bavaria is commemorating the great theologian with a series of events at the Flossenbürg concentration camp memorial from April 3 to 10, 2025.
If we remember and commemorate responsibly, we can help to ensure that Nazi crimes are no longer committed. And we carry forward the hope that Dietrich Bonhoeffer formulated in his theology and in his texts of faith while in captivity and distress.:
#boundlesshope
A faith that does not hope is sick.
It is like a hungry child that does not eat, or like a tired person that does not want to sleep.
As surely as a person believes, he hopes.
And there is no shame in hoping, in hoping without limits. Who would want to talk about God without hoping?
Who would want to talk about God without hoping to see him one day? Who would want to talk about peace and love among people without wanting to experience them once in eternity?
Who would want to talk about a new world and a new humanity without hoping that they will take part in it? And why should we be ashamed of our hope?
One day we will not be ashamed of our hope, but of our poor and fearful hopelessness, which does not trust God, which in false humility does not grasp where God's promises are made, which is resigned to this life and cannot look forward to God's eternal power and glory.
The more a person dares to hope, the greater his hope becomes: Man grows with his hope - if it is only hope in God and his sole power. Hope remains. *
(Source: London 1933-1935, DBW Volume 13, page 401f)
As surely as a man believes, so surely does he hope. And there is no shame in hoping, in boundless hope.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
