Johann Christoph Arnold Boeken

Levensverhalen van mensen die in een diepe crisis raakten, maar deze wisten te overwinnen door vergeving.

"If you've ever felt that praying was like talking to a wall the last thing you need is another book that holds out religion like a good-luck charm. Where has the real God gone? According to Arnold, nowhere. Healing wholeness, and a rich spiritual life are yours for the asking. But are you ready to meet God on his terms?"--Jacket.

A guide to the process of forgiveness discusses the importance of this virtue and reveals the role "holding on" to bitterness and rage plays in bigotry, crime, and war.

There's hope for childhood. Despite a perfect storm of hostile forces that are robbing children of a healthy childhood, courageous parents and teachers who know what's best for children are turning the tide. Johann Christoph Arnold, whose books on education, parenting, and relationships have helped more than a million readers through life's challenges, draws on the stories and voices of parents and educators on the ground, and a wealth of personal experience. He surveys the drastic changes in the lives of children, but also the groundswell of grassroots advocacy and action that he believes will lead to the triumph of common sense and time-tested wisdom. Arnold takes on technology, standardized testing, overstimulation, academic pressure, marketing to children, over-diagnosis and much more, calling on everyone who loves children to combat these threats to childhood and find creative ways to help children flourish. Every parent, teacher, and childcare provider has the power to make a difference, by giving children time to play, access to nature, and personal attention, and most of all, by defending their right to remain children.

For anyone sick of the spiritual soup filling so many bookstore shelves these days, Seeking Peace is sure to satisfy a deep hunger. Arnold offers no easy solutions, but also no unrealistic promises. He spells out what peace demands. There is a peace greater than self-fulfillment, he writes. But you wont find it if you go looking for it. It is waiting for everyone ready to sacrifice the search for individual peace, everyone ready to die to self.
