In Bonhoeffer: Agent of Grace I feel that Bonhoeffer should have never agreed to become a spy for the Resistence. I feel agreeing to that was suicide and may have known that also. In the movie he was very unsure of doing it. One reason that he should have not done it is he knew there was a chance it would not work. Another reason is that the Gestapo was watching him.

Roeder was watching Bonhoeffer because at the beginning of the movie he stops Diethrich from speaking in public. Also Diethrich would not become a part of the Third Reich. With Bonhoeffer be a man of God he could have kept preaching against the Nazis. While doing that he could have been persuading people to get out of Germany before the Nazis started to take over completely. But at the same time that was what he was doing with the resistance
. In the movie he asked to help get the Jews out of Germany. He was asked to help because people trust him. So I do still think it was not a good idea to be part of the resistance
. But with them him did help some people in the process. Like I stated he change the thinking of Knobloch. Knobloch in the beginning of the movie asks Dietrich why does he keep trying to help...
