Publisher's Synopsis
People who knew J. Heinrich Arnold (1913-1982) say they never met another person like him. In his presence, complete strangers poured out their darkest secrets and left transformed. Others wanted him dead. Author Henri Nouwen called him a "prophetic voice" and wrote of how his writings "touched me as a double-edged sword, calling me to choose between truth and lies, selflessness and selfishness..." Few knew Arnold's past, or could have imagined the crucibles he endured. Until now.
