May they no longer remain "hidden under a bushel," but shine out to be heeded by many. <b>--Jürgen Moltmann</b><br><br><b>A little known but powerfully articulate saint, </b> Arnold lived faithfully in difficult circumstances. For preachers who preach from Matthew 5-7, this book will be a benefit. <b>--Clergy Journal</b><br><br><b>An admirable, excellent book</b> needed by a world which has turned against the Great Teaching of Jesus. --<b>Pitirim A. Sorokin, </b> Harvard University<br><br><b>Expecting everything from God and from God alone, </b> certain that his seed and his light are in all people, Eberhard Arnold permits no compromise in witnessing to the way of nonviolence and nonpossession that he sees exemplified by Jesus. <b>--Friends Journal</b><br><br><b>Many will be made uncomfortable by <i>Salt and Light, </i></b> and it is no wonder. The Sermon on the Mount is, at a minimum, challenging and controversial. It threatens the present order of society. So does Arnold's interpretation of it. <b>--Senator Mark O. Hatfield</b><br><br><b>My life has been greatly enriched</b> by reading <i>Salt and Light.</i> The eternal truth of its contents at times gives me the feeling that I am reading scripture. You have done humankind a service by making this available. <b>--Clarence Jordan, </b> Koinonia Farms<br><br><b>The founder of the Bruderhof offers reflections</b> on the Sermon on the Mount that stress God's forgiveness. Eberhard Arnold calls people to a life on complete trust in God so that their attitude toward God's kingdom, other people, material wealth, and earthly power are transformed. <b>--Christianity Today</b><br><br><b>These heart-searching meditations</b> on our Lord's Mountain Manifesto are most fittingly entitled <i>Salt and Light.</i> Their spiritual impact is both salty and enlightening. <b>--Vernon Grounds, </b> Denver Theological Seminary<br>
