Desiring God

What do you do when your world comes crashing down?


Arno’s world suddenly changed, when he came out as gay, divorced and was thrown out of the church he founded and had pastored for many years.


How do you deal with the anger, bitterness, and the grief of seeing your life and ministry fall apart?


This book is his spiritual journey through the wilderness. It describes his search for a relevant, meaningful, and loving faith. A faith that could take him through the dark valley and heal the wounds of spiritual abuse.


Arno is reflecting on being gay and Christian, longings, and desires and how he found a more beautiful gospel. It is a book of hope for minorities and all who experience discrimination and oppression: The Kingdom of God is for you.
