Who is Johann Christoph Arnold?
People have come to expect sound advice from Johann Christoph Arnold, an
award-winning author whose recent books on ***uality, marriage, raising
children, facing death, forgiving, and finding peace have sold over
300,000
copies in English and have been translated into 19 foreign languages.
Arnold is senior pastor of the Bruderhof www.bruderhof.com - an
international communal movement dedicated to a life of simplicity,
service,
sharing, and nonviolence. In thirty years as a family counselor, Johann
Christoph Arnold has advised thousands of couples and individuals,
including the terminally ill, veterans, prison inmates, and teenagers. A
native of Britain and father of eight grown children, he lives with his
wife Verena in upstate New York.
An outspoken social critic, Johann Christoph Arnold has been a guest on
hundreds of talk shows, and a speaker at numerous colleges and high
schools. He advocates "a consistent reverence for life" and opposes
violence in any form, whether it be war, capital punishment, euthanasia,
or
abortion. He has worked together with other renowned peacemakers for
reconciliation and justice in many of the world's conflict zones. Recent
peace missions have taken him to Northern Ireland, the Middle East, and
Central America - and into local schools, hospitals, nursing homes, and
prisons.
I'll post some autobiographical anecdotes excerpted from Johann Christoph
Arnold's various books to this thread.
