Come Before Winter

[Gregory Matthews]

He had escaped the  Third Reich and established himself in the United States.  He was now an honored cleric with distinction when he felt the call of the Lord to return to Germany and what he knew could be death.  So, in response to what he believed to be the call of God, Dietrich Bonhoeffer returned to German and eventually the death that he knew could happen.

This story is told by the new docudrama film entitled: Come Before Winter, taken from 1st Timothy 4:21.

For more on this film and ministry, see:

NOTE: The people who brought this docudrama into being were generally SDAs.

A comment by Deitrich Bonheoffer:

I'm going with the awareness that I followed my deepest convictions and the truth.  This allows me to meet my hour of death with a conscience at peace.

For such a good and just cause the sacrifice of one's life is the proper price.
