			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Love Letters</strong></p>
<p>Eberhard Arnold and Emmy von Hollander<br />
Everyone’s looking for true love but few people seem willing to work at making it last. Read the<br />
love letters of two people passionately in love &#8211; with each other and with God.</p>
<p><strong>When the Time Was Fulfilled  </strong></p>
<p>Christmas Meditations<br />
The meditations in this collection are meant solely to prepare us to meet Christ anew. They are written by three seekers who struggled hard and long to find, in the words of Søren Kierkegaard, “the contemporary Christ.” They witness to the fact that the birth of Jesus is more than history – it is a reality – but only for those who feel their need and are personally ready to come to the manger.</p>
<p><strong>Action In Waiting</strong><br />
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt</p>
<p>These seventeen essays give a fresh look at the spiritual life as “active expectation” of God’s kingdom breaking into this world. This kingdom is no longer relegated to some afterlife, but takes effect today.</p>
<p><strong>Against the Wind</strong></p>
<p>Markus Baum<br />
A journalist’s biography of Eberhard Arnold, a man who, in his search for Christ, ended up turning the Christianity of his day on its head. Markus Baum looks at the forces that shaped Arnold’s life, recreates the colorful era in which he lived, and shows Arnold’s connection with other thinkers of his day.</p>
<p><strong>The Awakening</strong><br />
Friedrich Zuendel<br />
A must-read for anyone who has doubts about spiritual warfare, The Awakening provides a rare glimpse into the eternal fight between the forces of good and evil in the daily lives of ordinary men and women.</p>
<p><strong><br />
Be Not AfraidBe</strong><br />
Johann Christoph Arnold<br />
In this hope-filled book, stories of real men and women offer hard-won insights on dealing with uncertainty, loss, grief, and the fear of death. Arnold knows that the biggest challenges in life are the ones that won’t fit the script. All the same, he is convinced that there are plenty of common truths worth holding to the light.</p>
<p><strong>tChristoph Blumhardt and his Message</strong><br />
R Lejeune<br />
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt (1842-1919) was an original. He was at home nowhere &#8211; he belonged neither to church circles nor to secular ones. He was an embarrassment to Christians and non-Christians alike. He seemed to challenge and disconcert everyone. And yet he possessed a strange confidence in God’s history; a confidence that inspired hope in many, and continues to do so even today.</p>
<p><strong>Cries From the Heart</strong><br />
Johann Christoph Arnold<br />
If you’ve ever felt that praying was like talking to a wall, the last thing you need is another book that holds out religion like a good-luck charm. Where has the real God gone? Arnold tells stories about real men and women with very real problems finding strength to face life’s challenges. Their experiences &#8211; which range from extreme to quite ordinary and universal &#8211; will comfort and encourage even the most jaded reader.</p>
<p><strong>Discipleship</strong><br />
J. Heinrich Arnold<br />
Sometimes sensitive, sometimes provocative, but always encouraging, Arnold guides readers toward leading Christlike lives amid the stress and strain of modern life.</p>
<p><strong>Drained</strong><br />
Johann Christoph Arnold<br />
Dedicated to all “who refuse to run on empty,” Drained tells the stories of ordinary people who overcame their greatest obstacles. For anyone ready to go beyond quick fixes, it provides realistic stepping stones toward a fulfilled life.</p>
<p><strong>The Early Christians</strong><br />
Edited by Eberhard Arnold<br />
What did Christianity look like before it became an institution? Find out for yourself with this collection of firsthand accounts of the early church. Includes excerpts from Origen, Tertullian, Polycarp, Clement of Alexandria, Justin, Irenaeus, and others—and equally revealing material from their critics, detractors and persecutors.</p>
<p><strong>Eberhard Arnold &#8211; Writings Selected</strong><br />
Eberhard Arnold<br />
If you’ve never read any of Eberhard Arnold’s writings before, this collection may be the best place to start. For those already familiar with the author, this e-book might be described as the Portable Arnold &#8211; a collection of the strongest and best of his prolific output.</p>
<p><strong>Endangered</strong><br />
Johann Christoph Arnold<br />
Written for parents (and teachers and caregivers) weary of trying to do the “right” thing, Endangered will empower you to act on the wisdom you already possess.</p>
<p><strong>Escape Routes</strong><br />
Johann Christoph Arnold<br />
In Escape Routes, Arnold explores the roots of loneliness, frustration, alienation, and despair and the keys needed to leave them behind. No self-help mumbo jumbo here &#8211; just lots of real-life stories and straightforward advice. Potent medicine for anyone willing to down it.</p>
<p><strong>Freedom From Sinful Thoughts</strong><br />
J. Heinrich Arnold<br />
Sage advice on finding freedom and wholeness in a world full of distractions and temptations.</p>
<p><strong>God&#8217;s Revolution</strong><br />
Eberhard Arnold<br />
Eberhard Arnold doesn’t approach discipleship as a benign route to religious fulfillment, but as revolution &#8211; a transformation that begins within and spreads outward to encompass every aspect of life. Here is the raw reality of the gospel that has the power to change the world.</p>
<p><strong>The Gospel in Dostoyevsky</strong><br />
Fyodor Dostoyevsky<br />
Excerpts from Dostoyevsky’s greatest novels explore the devastating (yet ultimately healing) social implications of the Gospels. This collection of passages vividly reveals &#8211; as none of his novels can on their own &#8211; the common thread of the great God-haunted Russian’s questioning faith.</p>
<p><strong>The Hidden Christ</strong><br />
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt<br />
How are Christians to bring the gospel to the world? After centuries of misguided crusades, how can we rediscover mission as Jesus understood it? Must peoples embrace Christianity to know Christ and his liberation?</p>
<p><strong><br />
Homage to a Broken Man</strong><br />
Peter Mommsen<br />
Those who knew J. Heinrich Arnold later in life wondered at the way people were drawn to this strange man with a thick accent and easy smile. In his presence, complete strangers poured out their darkest secrets and left transformed. Others wanted him dead.</p>
<p><strong>Individual and World Need</strong><br />
Eberhard Arnold<br />
Timeless yet as timely as ever, this short book explores the relationship of the individual to world suffering and points to a solution.</p>
<p><strong>Inner Words</strong><br />
Chosen and Arranged by Emmy Arnold<br />
Daily meditations selected by Emmy Arnold from the writings of her husband Eberhard Arnold, as well as those of Augustine, Blumhardt, Bodelschwingh, Deitrich Bonhoeffer, Meister Eckhart, Hermann Loens, Martin Luther, Thomas a Kempis, Hudson Taylor and others.</p>
<p><strong>Innerland</strong><br />
Eberhard Arnold<br />
Arnold’s classic guide into the heart of the gospel invites readers to turn from the chaos of a society distracted by violence and greed to that “inner land of the invisible, where our spirit can find the roots of its strength.”</p>
<p><strong>Jesus and the Nonviolent Revolution</strong><br />
André Trocmé<br />
In this book, you’ll encounter a Jesus you may have never met before–a Jesus who not only calls for spiritual transformation, but for practical changes that answer the most perplexing political, economic, and social problems of our time.</p>
<p><strong>Jesus Is The Victor</strong><br />
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt<br />
If you ever doubt that Jesus has power to change the world, or despair of seeing his victory come to fruition in your own personal life, you should read this book.</p>
<p><strong>A Joyful Pilgrimage</strong><br />
Emmy Arnold<br />
If life was a battle for Emmy Arnold, it was also a celebration. This is the secret to her joy: she lived an undivided life, a life where the practical and the spiritual, the personal and the political, were one. Her memoir is a challenge to faith and commitment against all odds, and a testimony to the leading of a uniting Spirit stronger than everything that keeps people apart.</p>
<p><strong>Lift Thine Eyes</strong><br />
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt<br />
Prayers of comfort, courage, and hope for every day of the year, each with a corresponding verse from the Old or New Testament. The peace that flows from Blumhardt’s prayers comes from an unshakable conviction that God’s kingdom is indeed on the way.</p>
<p><strong>A Little Child Shall Lead Them</strong><br />
Johann Christoph Arnold<br />
A pastor and family counselor offers down-to-earth insights every parent can apply. Topics include fatherhood, motherhood, spoiling your child, discipline, adoption, special needs, building character, academics, sports and play, sex education, role of grandparents, media consumption, and homeschooling.</p>
<p><strong>Love Is Like Fire</strong><br />
Peter Riedemann<br />
Peter Riedemann’s first confession of faith, written as a 23-year-old from a dungeon in Austria, is an important historical document and a refreshing reminder of the spirit which fired the early Anabaptists.</p>
<p><strong>My Search</strong><br />
Josef Ben-Eliezer<br />
Growing up Jewish under the shadow of the Nazis, forced into exile in Siberia, barely escaping with his life from starvation and disease in southern Asia, he finally made it to the land of Israel. But the inhumanity of war continued to pursue him, along with the question: why cannot men and women live together in peace?</p>
<p><strong>No One Can Stem the Tide</strong><br />
Jane Tyson Clement<br />
A collection of poetry that explores the varied emotions of life &#8211; of love, longing, and loss; memory, sacrifice, and desire; struggle and frustration, joy and resolve.</p>
<p><strong>Now Is Eternity</strong><br />
Johann C. and Christoph F. Blumhardt<br />
A collection of seventy short but striking meditations to battle weariness and despair.</p>
<p><strong><br />
Poems and Rymed Prayers</strong><br />
Eberhard Arnold<br />
Eberhard Arnold published most of his essays during his lifetime, but almost none of his poems. It might have been shyness: many are love poems, and others reveal private struggles. All of them open a window on a man’s inmost thoughts, and show him at his most essential and Christ-centered.</p>
<p><strong>The Prayer God Answerss</strong><br />
Eberhard Arnold<br />
In this e-book, Eberhard Arnold describes the kind of prayer that pleases God, and challenges us to rediscover the prayer that has the power to transform our lives and our world.</p>
<p><strong>Provocations</strong><br />
Soren Kierkegaard<br />
The most accessible introduction to the spiritual writings of Soren Kierkegaard, Provocations contains a little of everything from his prodigious output, including his wryly humorous attacks on “the mediocre shell” of conventional Christianity, his brilliantly pithy parables, his amazing insights on the human condition, and his incisive attempts to pare away the fluff of modern spirituality to reveal the basics of the Christ-centered life.</p>
<p><strong><br />
Rachoff</strong><br />
Karl Josef Friedrich<br />
Meet an upstart who disarms his wealthy parents by taking in a homeless man (he is robbed, of course); who receives accolades for teaching illiterates to read and write but gets run out of town for telling them about Jesus as well.</p>
<p><strong>Salt and Light</strong><br />
Eberhard Arnold<br />
Seventeen challenging talks and essays on the Sermon on the Mount, by a writer who believes their demands are viable and inescapable &#8211; and must be lived out today.</p>
<p><strong>The Secret Flower</strong><br />
Jane Tyson Clement<br />
Written with a measured beauty that recalls Tolstoy and Tolkien, Clement’s poems and short stories carry an uplifting sense of expectancy &#8211; of something new on the way. Jane Tyson Clement (1917-2000) was a mother, teacher, and poet.</p>
<p><strong>Seeking Peace</strong><br />
Johann Christoph Arnold<br />
Explores many facets of humankind’s ageless search for peace. Arnold plumbs a wealth of spiritual traditions and draws on the wisdom of some exceptional (and some very ordinary) people who have found peace in surprising places.</p>
<p><strong>Sex, God, and Marriage</strong><br />
Johann Christoph Arnold<br />
A refreshing new look at sex, love, and marriage that sees past the usual issues and gets to the root: our relationship with God, and the defining power of that bond over all other relationships.</p>
<p><strong>She Said Yes</strong><br />
Misty Bernall<br />
Cassie Bernall was one of the students killed in the Columbine High School massacre. Told with unflinching honesty by her mother, Misty Bernall, Cassie’s is a profoundly human story that should be read by every parent and every teenager.</p>
<p><strong>Testimony to Church Community</strong><br />
Eberhard Arnold<br />
A concise, readable introduction to the life and writings of a man who, in his search for Christ, spent his life turning conventional Christianity on its head.</p>
<p><strong><br />
A Third Testament</strong><br />
Malcolm Muggeridge<br />
In this illuminating collection of portraits, Muggeridge explores the spiritual wanderings seven maverick thinkers: Augustine, Pascal, Blake, Kierkegaard, Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, and Bonhoeffer.</p>
<p><strong>Thoughts on Children</strong><br />
Johann Christoph Blumhardt and Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt<br />
It is sometimes said that each child is a thought in the mind of God. But even if we believe this, and approach the children entrusted to us with reverence, we may often feel helpless-whether in the face of a two-year-old’s tantrum or a teenager’s silence.</p>
<p><strong>Thy kingdom Come</strong><br />
Edited by Vernard Eller<br />
Download a free e-book with excerpts from sermons and discussions by the Blumhardts compiled by Vernard Eller.</p>
<p><strong>The Violence of Love</strong><br />
Oscar Romero<br />
A powerful book of eloquent, simple meditations, bearing witness to the hard life of a man who was martyred for his faith.</p>
<p><strong>Walk in the Light</strong><br />
Leo Tolstoy<br />
An unrivaled introduction to a literary and spiritual giant, these 24 short stories have stood the test of time for over a century.</p>
<p><strong>War A Call to Inner LifeWar</strong><br />
Arnold, Blake, Bonhoeffer, Dostoevsky, Hesse, Kierkegaard, Muggeridge, L’Engle, Romero, Solzhenitsyn, Tolstoy, and others<br />
We live in a time of war. From Baghdad to New York, the fabric of society is being torn apart by hatred and greed, and everyone’s nervous about something &#8211; if not the weather or the economy, then another terrorist attack. That’s why we’re offering you this free e-book.</p>
<p><strong>Why Forgive?</strong><br />
Johann Christoph Arnold<br />
No matter the weight of our bitterness or despair, forgiving is the surest way to get out from under it. But that’s easier said than done. Why Forgive? brings together survivors of crime, betrayal, bigotry, and abuse &#8211; and ordinary men and women plagued by everyday strife. Together, their stories will challenge and encourage others wherever they are on the road to healing.</p>
<p><strong>Why We Live in Community</strong><br />
Eberhard Arnold<br />
In this time-honored manifesto, Arnold adds his voice to the vital discussion of what real intentional community is all about: love, joy, unity, and the great “adventure of faith” shared with others along the way. He does not describe (or prescribe) community here, but provides a vision to guide our search.</p>
<p><strong>The Wisdom of the Sadhu</strong><br />
Sadhu Sundar Singh<br />
A collection of anecdotes, sayings, parables, and meditations from one of the most fascinating spiritual guides of the 20th century. Rooted as it is in a distinctively Indian idiom, his Christian wisdom challenges Western readers to step beyond theological ideas and encounter the essence of the Gospels.</p>
