    About The Book

    Do you feel powerless to change the injustice at every level of society? Are you tired of answers that ignore the root causes of human suffering? This selection of writings by Eberhard Arnold, who left a career and the established church in order to live out the gospel, calls us to a completely different way.

    Be warned: Arnold doesn’t approach discipleship as the route to some benign religious fulfillment, but as a revolution - a transformation that begins within and spreads outward to encompass every aspect of life. Arnold writes in the same tradition of radical obedience to the gospel as his contemporaries Barth and Bonhoeffer.

    Acclaim

    • The witness of Eberhard Arnold is a much needed corrective to an American church that has lost the vital, biblical connection between belief and obedience…Shows us what discipleship might look like in the modern world.

      Jim Wallis, Sojourners

    • The undeniable power of Arnold's writing owes to the fact that there is no difference between what he professed to believe and the way he lived. It gives his words a resonance and depth, a right to be heard.

      Juli Loesch Wiley, New Oxford Review

    • The aim of God in history is the creation of an all-inclusive community of persons with Christ as its prime sustainer and most glorious inhabitant...Arnold's vision incarnates just such a community.

      Richard Foster, author, Celebration of Discipline

    • There is no better introduction to the thought and spirit of this twentieth-century prophet.

      Robert Ellsberg, Orbis Books

    • Arnold's writing has all the simple, luminous, direct vision into things that I have come to associate with his name. It has the authentic ring of a truly evangelical Christianity and moves me deeply. It stirs to repentance and renewal. I am deeply grateful for it.

      Thomas Merton

    • This book has challenged and nourished my own thought concerning violence, property, war, the ruling authorities and assorted principalities, and especially the Christian’s eschatological expectation.

      William Stringfellow, author, Free in Obedience

      Review of God’s Revolution

      Arnold's reflections on contentious issues like capitalism, war, human suffering, disease, global poverty, manual labor, piety, community, common property, service in the army, sustainable farming etc, are like 'mails' in your "in box" from a contemporary prophet living in the neighborhood.

    • What this books aims to reveal to us about the Kingdom of God is already here on earth.. the Paradise is restored.. the heavenly atmosphere is now...
    • All praise be to the lord. Welcome new E books on the Lord's revolution a necessity of the time.

      Review of God’s Revolution

      God's Revolution has become very relevant in my life. I've read and reread it; it's placed adjacent to my Bible. Mr. Arnold was given a great vision to live what our Lord Jesus specifically wanted from his 'flock.' In this wonderful book, you sense the urgency and resplendent hope for truths that would become a palpable reality for mankind. I have great respect and admiration for the Bruderhof Communities, and the publications of Plough are so vital and necessary for every individual who wishes to be lovingly fed and nurtured.

    • Thank you! Will use.
