For a concise, readable introduction to the writings of a man who, in his search for Christ, spent his life turning conventional Christianity on its head, this is a good place to start. Eberhard Arnold (1883-1935) is relatively unknown today, yet in his prime his impact was felt by hundreds of thousands, and his life's work bears fruit today as few lives have. In 1920, venturing into an unknown future -- and leaving wealth, security, and a public speaking career -- he moved with his wife Emmy from Berlin to a tiny village, where they founded a small community on the basis of early church practices as described in the Book of Acts. Contains a biographical sketch, selections from his most important works, and brief memoirs by friends and colleagues.

Eberhard Arnold was one of the most remarkable Christian figures of the twentieth century. In the years after World War I he abandoned his career ambitions to live by the radical teachings of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. With his family and a small circle of friends he founded the Bruderhof, an international pacifist community rooted in the Anabaptist tradition, which soon brought him into conflict with the Nazi state. Whether you've never read Eberhard Arnold before, or have already been profoundly affected by one of his books, this introductory selection from many of his important works will give insight into of his thought on a wide range of topics, including justice, peacemaking, work, economic sharing, human nature, family, the Holy Spirit, the Bible, and the church. A biographical introduction by his grandson Johann Christoph Arnold puts the selections in context.

Feeling powerless to change the greed and injustice at every level of society? Tired of answers that ignore the true causes of human suffering? This revised anthology of Arnolds most compelling writings challenges us to seek the eternal truths of Christs way. But be warned: to Arnold, discipleship means revolution a transformation that begins within, but spreads outward to encompass every aspect of life. Here is the raw reality of the Gospel that has power to change the world.

One of Arnold's most compelling works, this essay explores the relationship of the individual to world sin and suffering and directs us clearly to a solution. Enlivened by a wide variety of anecdotal illustrations -- from the ancient myth of Prometheus to the expressionist Franz Werfel -- Arnold's message is simple but revolutionary: only by overcoming the cancerous selfishness of individualism can we overcome the need of the world and enter into a life of unity and love. It is the old truth: He that loses his life shall find it.

A trusted guide into the inner realm where our spirits find strength to master life and live for God. It is hard to exaggerate the significance of Innerland, either for Eberhard Arnold or his readers. It absorbed his energies off and on for most of his adult life--from World War I, when he published the first chapter under the title War: A Call to Inwardness, to 1935, the last year of his life. Packed in metal boxes and buried at night for safekeeping from the Nazis, who raided the author_s study a year before his death (and again a year after it), Innerland was not openly critical of Hitler_s regime. Nevertheless, it attacked the spirits that animated German society: its murderous strains of racism and bigotry, its heady nationalistic fervor, its mindless mass hysteria, and its vulgar materialism. In this sense Innerland stands as starkly opposed to the zeitgeist of our own day as to that of the author_s. At a glance, the focus of Innerland seems to be the cultivation of the spiritual life as an end in itself. Nothing could be more misleading. In fact, to Eberhard Arnold the very thought of encouraging the sort of selfish solitude whereby people seek their own private peace by shutting out the noise and rush of public life around them is anathema. He writes in The Inner Life:_These are times of distress. We cannot retreat, willfully blind to the overwhelming urgency of the tasks pressing on society. We cannot look for inner detachment in an inner and outer isolation...The only justification for withdrawing into the inner self to escape today's confusing, hectic whirl would be that fruitfulness is enriched by it. It is a question of gaining within, through unity with eternal powers, a strength of character ready to be tested in the stream of the world._ Innerland, then, calls us not to passivity, but to action. It invites us to discover the abundance of a life lived for God. It opens our eyes to the possibilities of that _inner land of the invisible where our spirit can find the roots of its strength and thus enable us to press on to the mastery of life we are called to by God._ Only there, says Eberhard Arnold, can our life be placed under the illuminating light of the eternal and seen for what it is. Only there will we find the clarity of vision we need to win the daily battle that is life, and the inner anchor without which we will lose our moorings.

Lightning and forest fires could strike terror in primitive humans, yet they also cherished fire as a life-giving gift from the gods. Eberhard Arnold surveys the symbolism of light and fire in the Bible, literature, and history to illuminate our love/fear relationship with God. The Holy Spirit, like fire, is a two-edged sword: it brings the blazing wrath of God's judgment, consuming all that is dead and cold in us, but also the radiant warmth of his love, mercy, and redemption. Though Inner Land was not explicitly critical of the Nazi regime, it nevertheless attacked the spirits that animated German society at the time: racism and bigotry, nationalistic fervor, mass hysteria, and materialism. The chapter "Light and Fire," in particular, was a deliberate public statement at a decisive moment of Germany's history. Eberhard Arnold sent Hitler a copy on November 9, 1933. A week later the Gestapo raided the community and ransacked the author's study. After this first raid, Eberhard Arnold asked two friends to pack the already printed signatures of Inner Land in watertight metal boxes and bury them at night for safekeeping. They later dug up Inner Land and smuggled it out of the country, publishing it in Lichtenstein after Eberhard Arnold's death. The fourth volume of five in Inner Land, Fire and Spirit contains two chapters, "Light and Fire" and "The Holy Spirit." About Innerland: It is hard to exaggerate the significance of Innerland, either for Eberhard Arnold or his readers.
