Madison Grace on Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Historical Theology

In this episode, I talk with my friend Dr. Madison Grace about Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the history of missions in the SBC, and the value of historical theology for the life of the churches. In our discussion, Madison describes some of his scholarship on Bonhoeffer's corpus of writings and identifies several ways this kind of work can serve students and pastors.

 

Madison is Associate Professor of Theology and Baptist History and Director of the Oxford Study Program at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, TX. He also serves at First Baptist Church, Mansfield, TX. 

 

Read some of his recent work in this area:

• Make Disciples of All Nations: A History of Southern Baptist International Missions (Kregel, 2021)
• "Salvation in the Medieval Era," in Historical Theology for the Church (B&H, 2021).  
• "Early English Baptists' View of the Lord's Supper," SWJT 57.2 (Spring 2015): 159–79. 
• "True Discipleship: Radical Voices from the Swiss Brethren to Dietrich Bonhoeffer to Today," SWJT 53.2 (Spring 2011): 135–53.
