Overview

Everyone’s talking about “community” these days. Arnold and Merton say it can be lived, too.

In this time-honored manifesto, Arnold and Merton add their voices to the vital discussion of what real community is all about: love, joy, unity, and the great “adventure of faith” shared with others along the way. Neither writer describes (or prescribes) community here, but they do provide a vision to guide our search.

For both the uninitiated seeker and the veteran, this book offers guidance – and a disarming call to a renewed commitment and a deepened faith.

About the Author

Eberhard Arnold (1883–1935) studied theology, philosophy, and education and was widely sought as a speaker at student conferences and other gatherings. In 1920, leaving a promising career as a writer and the privileges of upper-middle- class life in Berlin, he moved with his wife and children to Sannerz, a small village in central Germany, where they founded a Christian community on the basis of the Sermon on the Mount.

Why community? Faith is our basis Community answers the social-political question Community is the answer of faith Community through the history of the church Life in community means life in the Spirit The symbolism of community Community is a sign of the coming kingdom Community is a call to love and unity Community means sacrifice Community – an adventure of faith T h o m a s Merton Two interpretive talks Building community on God’s love Community, politics, and contemplation Notes to Merton’s talks
