A new film, Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin., tells the story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German Lutheran pastor, theologian, and anti-Nazi dissident. Centricity artist Lauren Daigle contributed a ballad titled “Then I Will” to the soundtrack. Inspired by Bonhoeffer’s book The Cost of Discipleship, Daigle expressed excitement about the project, with her song capturing the courage and sacrifice of this WWII hero.
When I was approached about joining the project, I immediately said ‘Yes!’” says Daigle. “Bonhoeffer had unwavering faith, and his commitment to stand up for the vulnerable and speak truth in the face of evil is a challenge to everyone. Are we willing to die for our neighbor?”
