Paul Tillich wrote more than 100 radio addresses that were broadcast into Nazi Germany from March 1942 through May 1944. The broadcasts - through Voice of America - were passionate and political pleas for Germans to recognize the horror of Hitler and to reject a morally and spiritually bankrupt government. Largely unknown in the United States, the broadcasts have been translated into English for the first time, and approximately half of them are presented in this book.
German-speaking listeners heard Tillich's observations on anti-Semitism, the liberation of Europe, resistance to Hitler, and the meaning of Christian faith to war-torn Europe. Tillich urged the defeat of oppressive governments, the securing of the welfare of the European people, and the federation of Europe.
