Dietrich Bonhoeffer, narrated
When the Nazi regime tried to take over the church, a young German pastor chose resistance over safety, and paid with his life.
Fortitude
Standing firm when it is hard.
Fortitude, the virtue we more often call courage, is the strength to do what is right even when it is difficult or frightening. It is not the absence of fear but the steadiness to act in spite of it: to endure hardship, to face danger for a good cause, and to hold fast to what is true. In these tales courage wears many faces, the bold and the quiet alike, but always it means standing firm when standing firm is hard.
Stories of fortitude
