Author

J. Heinrich Arnold (19131982) is best known for his books Discipleship and Freedom from Sinful Thoughts, which have helped thousands to follow Christ in their daily lives, and for his pastoral care as elder of the Bruderhof communities. When Arnold was seven, his parents founded the Bruderhof, a Christian community based on Jesus' teachings in the Sermon on the Mount. As a young man, he refused to serve in Hitler's armed forces and was forced to flee Germany. He studied agriculture in Zurich, Switzerland, and in 1936 married Annemarie Wächter, a kindergarten teacher and fellow Bruderhof member. In 1938 they moved to England, where Heinrich managed the community's farm. (The community had been expelled from Nazi Germany.) In 1941 the community was forced to emigrate to South America. In 1954, Heinrich Arnold and his family moved to the Woodcrest Community in Rifton, New York, the first of many Bruderhof communities in North America. From 1962 until his death, he served as elder and pastor of the growing movement. More details about Arnold's life can be found in his biography, Homage to a Broken Man, by Peter Mommsen.
