Life Together by Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

This short book is a reflection on life as an intentional Christian community, written by Bonhoeffer during his time as a head of the Illegal Seminary of the Confessing Church in Finkenwalde (Eastern Prussia).

Bonhoeffer begins his book Life Together with a quote from Psalms 133 verse 1: "Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity", followed by several examples of times when we are to come together through praise.

He writes that community is not something to be taken for granted but a necessity of the church functioning as it must as a living and vibrant organism, what he called a "community of love".


The book has become a spiritual classic in which many Christians of a wide variety of backgrounds and contexts have found meaning and encouragement.
