<p>âDaily, quiet reflection on the Word of God as it applies to me becomes for me a point of crystallization for everything that gives interior and exterior order to my life,â wrote Dietrich Bonhoeffer to his colleagues at the warfront in the winter of 1942. Now back in print after a decade, this collection of Bonhoefferâs writings, sermons, and letters on meditationâincluding his unfinished meditation on Psalm 119âreveals his deep love for the Bible as a focus for his prayer life and a support in his courageous political life. âWhy do I meditate?â asks Bonhoeffer. âBecause I am a Christian. Therefore, every day in which I do not penetrate more deeply into the knowledge of Godâs Word in Holy Scripture is a lost day for me.â</p>

Hawkins, Peter S.

The three outsiders are Blaise Pascal, Soren Kierkegaard, and Simone Weil. They were outsiders because they distanced themselves from the institutional church and also the societies around them in their respective eras. They believed that the church failed to take seriously the profound and disturbing relationship with God which is in Jesus Christ. From their position "outside they questioned the assumptions, practices, and understandings of their church and secular contemporaries. Each produced profoundly original but difficult writings (often in uncompleted fragments), which Professor Allen has organized and interpreted for anyone who asks the question, "How am I to be a Christian?
