Arnold's book, Cries from the Heart offers the reader a wonderful insight into the compassion and sensitivity that are the hallmarks of the Christian faith tradition. Alex J. Brunett, Archbishop Emeritus of Seattle
Cries from the Heart is written by someone who knows heartache and what life is like on the other side. By teaching us to pray, and how to trust prayer, Arnold embraces our despair and restores our confidence. Rev. Donna Schaper, author, Shelter for the Spiritually Homeless
Cries from the Heart offers a simple but profound gifta word of hope. John Dear, SJ, author, Living Peace
People will see themselves in these stories about real men and women overcoming adversity with prayer.
Cries from the Heart answers a specific spiritual hunger millions share - a longing for a personal connection to the divine. In times of crisis, all of us reach for someone, or something, greater than ourselves. Some call it prayer. Others just do it. For many, it's often like talking to a wall.
People are looking for assurance that someone hears them when they cry out in their despair, loneliness, or frustration. The last thing they need is another book telling them how to pray or what to say, holding out religion like a good-luck charm. So instead of theorizing or preaching, Johann Christoph Arnold tells stories about real men and women dealing with adversity. Their difficulties - which range from extreme to quite ordinary and universal - resonate with readers, offering a challenge, but also comfort and encouragement. People will see themselves in these glimpses of anguish, triumph, and peace.
