The Northwest premiere of Come Before Winter, a film detailing the last days of Lutheran pastor and Nazi resister Dietrich Bonhoeffer, is being co-sponsored by the local Jewish, Lutheran and Adventist congregations the Monday after Easter. Bonhoeffer's writings on a person of faith's role in the secular world have become widely influential, and his books Ethics and Discipleship have become modern classics.
The main event will be at 7 pm on Monday, April 17 at the Community Campus in Hailey. Following the viewing, there will be a Q&A session featuring the film's producer Gary Blount from Minnesota. Rabbi James Mirel, Rev. Gerald Reinke, and Pastor Stephen  from the sponsoring congregations will join Blount in the audience discussion. Preceding the main event, Blount will also present a one-hour program at 11 am on Saturday, April 15 at the Wood River Seventh-day Adventist Church in Hailey at 705 S. Main. He will share the historical framework and issues connected with Bonhoeffer's involvement with the German resistance and the theologian's viewpoints on the intersection of faith, action, and ethics.
