I got really interested in Kierkegaard last year. I even did some coursera online course on him which was pretty comprehensive. Nietzsche ofc is another big one in German philosophy so compelled to learn more about him I became a listener of the Nietzsche Podcast. There also was a long episode about Goethe's Faust (i was reading it at that time) and so all of this came together. Despite their obvious differences, both had quite some commonalities - even though Kierkegaards response is to believe - while Nietzsche appeals to self-creating meaning.

Kierkegaard I also did an online course but way ago and enjoyed very much. Yes, this is actually a beauty of philosophy, the opposing views reconcile not in the sense of agreeing with each other but arriving at the divine from different angles. Nietzsche’s will to power actually I see as very much aligned with Kierkegaard connection to God. I also like Bernard Russell’s (I think) saying (paraphrasing) To hold the opposing views and still reconcile and understand
