Un Camino Gozoso

Mi Vida En Comunidad
  • By Emmy Arnold
$18.00
Product Description
En los tiempos tumultuosos despuéeacute;s de la Primera Guerra Mundial, miles de jóoacute;venes alemanes desafiaron las convenciones sociales de sus padres ―y la influencia restrictiva de las iglesias establecidas― en busca de libertad, igualdad social, naturaleza y comunidad. Se formaron clubes de excursionistas y se organizaron campamentos de trabajo, y cientos de escuelas rurales populares y comunas surgieron a lo largo del paíiacute;s. En los treinta, el nazismo se engulló virtualmente completo el así llamado Movimiento Juvenil. Un camino gozoso es la interesante historia del resto que sobrevivió el Bruderhof, una comunidad de máaacute;s de 100 añntilde;os que comenzó cuando la autora y su esposo, un escritor y conferencista reconocido, dejaron su acomodado suburbio de Berlín para iniciar una nueva vida y una "aventura de fe". Aunque al principio parece una autobiografía, Un camino gozoso es un llamamiento radical a la fe y al compromiso contra todo pronóstico. Es, también, un testimonio notable de la guía del Espíritu que, como escribe Emmy Arnold, puede mantener juntos a aquellos que creen en el "milagro diario" de la comunidad "tanto en la dicha como en la adversidad".

[Description in English]: In the tumultuous aftermath of the First World War, thousands of young Germans defied the social mores of their parents - and the constricting influence of the established churches - in search of freedom, social equality, nature, and community. Hiking clubs were formed and work camps organized, and hundreds of rural folk schools and communes sprang up across the country. In the 1930s, Nazism swallowed this so-called Youth Movement virtually whole.
A Joyful Pilgrimage is the engaging story of a remnant that survived: the Bruderhof, a 75-year-old community that began when the author and her husband, a well-known writer and lecturer, abandoned their affluent Berlin suburb to start a new life and "venture of faith."
At first glance a memoir, A Joyful Pilgrimage 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 Emmy Arnold writes, can hold together those who believe in the "daily miracle" of community "through thick and thin."
