In Be Not Afraid, Arnold addresses fears that every person faces - fear of death and loss, illness, aging, fear of vulnerability, and fear of suffering.

A pastor who has worked with the dying for three decades, Arnold knows that each of us must meet death in our own unique way. Yet through stories of people he has known and counseled as a pastor, relative, or friend, he shows how all suffering can be given meaning, and despair overcome. These real-life stories offer sure proof that even today, in our culture of isolation and death, there is reason for hope.

Based on his popular 1997 book, I Tell You a Mystery, this new version has been broadened in scope to include discussion of contemporary issues such as AIDS, suicide, and euthanasia.

I have a collection of books given to me in time during my visits to the Bellvale Community. They have a place of honor in my home for they are 'food for the soul'. I often find myself reading a passage when I speak at workshops on Parental Bereavement. These books strengthen the 'Spirit' on the journey of parental loss because I feel as I read the words in the books, know what I know, and proclaim aloud that......
Jesus Christ is at the  ' Center of the Center.'
Thank You so much for inspiration.
