Sadly, Nazism swallowed the German movement virtually whole -- and Wall Street, though in entirely different fashion, did the same to the American one.\u003cp\u003eTorches Together is the story of a community that survived: the Bruderhof, a 75-year-old movement that began when writer Eberhard Arnold and his wife Emmy left Berlin life for the unknowns of an impoverished village.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt first glance a memoir, Torches Together is a radical call to faith and commitment against great odds. It is also a remarkable testimony to the leading of the Spirit, which, as Arnold writes, can hold together those who believe in the \"daily miracle\" of community \"through thick and thin\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLyn Baker, Logos Journal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails in subdued and undramatic fashion how ordinary middle-class Christians were spurred by the Holy Spirit and the decadence of their culture to become lowly, dependent, and centered on God.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Plough Pub.
