Review: AGAINST THE WIND by Markus Baum

Eberhard Arnold was a German Chrstian and founder of the Bruderhof movement, modeled on the voluntary socialism, community of goods,and poverty of the Church in the book of Acts. This book is a biography of him and the first Bruderhof.

I found the book very interesting for a couple of reasons. First, it's a part of Christianity most people never hear about. Second, it was around this time that I started studying Anabaptism, and the sixteenth century Anabaptists were hugely influential on Arnold.

I don't expect everyone to share my views, but I recommend this book. Besides, the ebook is free at plough.com.
