"When we confess our sins before a brother-Christian, we are mortifying the pride of the flesh and delivering it up to shame and death through Christ."

- Dietrich Bonhoeffer in The Cost of Discipleship p.289

And that is the last of my quotes from The Cost of Discpleship. The book made me think hard about a lot of things and I'm really glad I read it, but it wasn't easy! As I said in an earlier post, if you're not up for a huge read, I'd still recommend at least reading the chapters on "Costly Grace" and "The Visible Community."

Let me know what you think!
