Trail Blazers

The multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common. Acts 4:32

Over the centuries of our Christian Faith, leaders rise from our world community from the need to lead those who are searching for God. Eberhard and Emmy Arnold turned their backs on the comforts of suburban Berlin and made a giant leap in their faith. As trail blazers at a time when they had everything, they decided to make a stand for living a simple spiritual life of faith in God. They exemplified the life of the early church of living and sharing as a community of faith, hope and love. They opened their homes to not just fellow Christians but to all who were searching for a higher calling in life. Like Abraham they were confident that God would provide for all their needs. Although the world would have looked at them as being foolish, their faith urged them on.
