Religion, Myth, and Christian Faith: Bonhoeffer Reads Bultmann

In one of his letters, Bonhoeffer writes, "My opinion of it today would be that [Bultmann] went not 'too far' as most people thought, but rather not far enough." He is speaking of Bultmann's emphasis on demythologizing the New Testament. What does Bultmann mean by mythology, and how does it relate to Bonhoeffer's call for a religionless Christian faith? That's the focus of this episode.
