Decades after the Holocaust, many assume that the churches in Germany resisted the Nazi regime. In fact, resistance was exceptional. The Deutsche Christen, or “German Christians,” a movement within German Protestantism, integrated Nazi ideology, nationalism, and Christian faith. Marrying religious anti-Judaism to the Nazis’ racial anti-Semitism, they aimed to remove everything Jewish from Christianity.
For the first time in English, Mary M. Solberg presents a selection of “German Christian” documents. Her introduction sets the historical context. She also includes responses critical of the German Christians by Karl Barth and Dietrich Bonhoeffer. This is an important piece of the puzzle for any student of the history of Christianity.
