Books by Dave Arns

This is a great book for anyone wanting to look closely at scriptures that make reference to prophets and seers. If you want to know if there is a difference between the two, this is your book! The author sets out to investigate how this spiritual gift is demonstrated and uses scriptural references to bring to light the similarities between prophets and seers. I particularly enjoyed that the format of the book was written like a bible study/word study.

It is a good book. . . it will bless many. . . It is a solid book.

Thank you, Dave, for not allowing God to be put in a box of human expectations or limitations, by raising questions and showing evidence of His sovereignty in all things. Your absolute unyielding adherence to the authority of Scripture and freedom of thought to allow the word to be unfettered by narrow-minded interpretive schemes is refreshing. . . Your book challenged the kind of thinking that creates a war between science and the Bible based on the conclusion some have made, that ‘God only works in ways we understand.’ The solid Biblical evidence presented encourages and establishes both the ‘holding fast’ to the authority of Scripture and the mystery and majesty of the Creator’s sovereign will to act in the affairs of man. I highly recommend this book as a textbook of Biblical evidence that God is God, and as the Scripture says: ‘I will work and who can stop me?’

Dave Arns does a service to the Kingdom of God by writing concerning an important area of Christian thought that some would like to avoid in today’s world. He approaches the subject of the validity of the concept of extra-Biblical truth with love and compassion for all who might take sides on the issue. Especially noteworthy is Dave’s positive statement dealing with concern for adhering to the truth of God’s word in evaluating any position taken—in the chapter titled ‘Detecting Counterfeits,’ Dave reminds us that ‘Ever since the Garden of Eden, there have been spiritual counterfeits, but if you look at it logically, that should actually be encouraging. . . The only reason Satan tries to counterfeit spiritual gifts is because there are real gifts he’s trying to pull people away from. So we should not fear spiritual counterfeits; we should go to God and find out what it is that He’s trying to give us that is so powerful and influential for His Kingdom that Satan is trying his best to scare us away from it.’

“My name is Charity, and I live in New York.” Both of those are true statements, yet neither one is mentioned in Scripture. Through this simple illustration we understand that while everything in the Bible is true, the Bible does not contain all truth. Dave Arns carefully explores this important distinction in his book, Extra-Biblical Truth: A Valid Concept? Here you will find a responsible examination of a potentially confusing subject written with an uncompromising commitment to the authority and inerrancy of God’s Word. I highly recommend it.

Gold Dust, Jewels, and More: Manifestations of God? by Dave Arns is an excellent teaching regarding these phenomena which are occurring in our time. Dave gives a very thorough Biblical study of this subject and relates historical evidence of these manifestations as well. The reader will be significantly informed, and any doubts of the validity of the Lord manifesting Himself in this manner will be quickly put to rest. Dave’s dry sense of humor adds a great deal of pleasure in the reading of this book! It is packed full of insightful information.

It is my joy to review and recommend this book by Dave Arns. Coming from a Pentecostal denomination, I have experienced many of the manifestations referred to in this book. At first, I expected the various manifestations to be “defended” as if they were phenomenon outside of Biblical record. A defense of such experiences would not have been unwarranted, in light of much criticism that has come from certain theological camps opposed to such experiences. However, this book treats the various manifestations from not only their symbolism but of the actual fruit borne from true encounters with God and the work of the Holy Spirit. The overwhelming purpose of the signs and wonders spoken of in Scripture and of believers’ experiences is that these signs point away from themselves and point to Jesus and the Holy Spirit’s work, creating a sense of wonder and majesty. I have been in meetings where jewels were sprinkled all over the altar area where intense worship was happening. The resulting focus was not on the phenomenon, though not ignored, but an even greater intensity and focus on the manifest presence of King Jesus. I have experienced weeping, laughter, dreams and visions, and this book points out the spiritual normality of such things in light of innumerable accounts in Scripture. As I read each Biblical reference concerning gold, jewels, oil, glory clouds, falling under the power of God, shaking, and laughter, I was drawn even more to the majesty and creativity of Almighty God. Reading this book gave a sound, sane, and substantive context to the prayer of Jesus: “. . .on earth as it is in heaven.” The reminder the author gives, to keep your eyes on Jesus and keep loving the skeptics, puts on display the priority of manifesting the fruit of the Spirit while experiencing the ever-increasing splendor of the precious Holy Spirit’s sovereignty and majesty.

If you’ve ever wondered if gold dust and other supernatural phenomena are real, if not biblical, this book is a must-read! Filled with Scriptural detail, this exhaustive writing paints a clear picture of why we can be assured: that the supernatural phenomena God’s people are experiencing today across the globe is Biblical. Enjoy!

As the Director of the Bethel Healing Ministries in Redding, California, I’ve dedicated my life to see Jesus get everything He paid for on the cross. Healing is a topic that is very personal to me and I will never shy away from it. I have dedicated my life to pursue healing, both for my family and for the body of Christ to walk in its fullness. It wasn’t too many years ago that I was crying out to God to see my first healing, and now it is a part of my everyday life. I travel extensively as part of my job, ministering and teaching on healing, and it was on one such trip that I had the privilege of meeting Dave Arns. As I travel, it doesn’t take too long to realize that people have a lot of questions and misconceptions regarding healing, God’s will to heal them, and if they could experience healing right there, right now. It’s a deep longing and desire in so many people, and yet often our misconceptions or poor theology keeps us from accessing what is rightly our inheritance. I’m so thankful Dave has written on this subject of healing, as it is a topic that needs to be addressed in depth and he does it with excellence. Even if we aren’t sick ourselves, we all know someone who suffers from some sort of physical ailment, whether minor or life-threatening, so it is something that directly or indirectly has an effect on all of our lives.

Often when you hear people speak or write on the topic of healing, they will skirt around the tough questions, but not Dave! He doesn’t shy away from anything in his book If It Be Thy Will, but instead he tackles the hard questions head on. Dave is a student of the Word, so you can rest assured that this book is full of Scripture and not just backed up with mere hype or his own experience. He uses multiple translations and covers a vast amount of Scripture. Dave lays the foundation of God’s nature as Healer throughout the Old Testament and then he will walk you through the New Testament stories of Jesus’ healings, the disciples’ healings, and then, verse by verse, he will show you God’s heart for us as believers, not only how to be a recipient of healing ourselves, but also how to minister healing to others. Dave doesn’t stop at theology, but brings the truths to a practical level and explains how this reality affects our daily lives as well. God wants to use us to heal the sick! Dave unpacks portions of Scripture such a Paul’s thorn in the flesh and Timothy’s ailments and will go on to answer questions such as “If a person has sin in their life, will it keep them from receiving healing?” If you have questions concerning God’s will to heal, if healing is for today, if God wants to use you to heal others, or just want to further understand God’s heart and the Biblical foundation of healing, I’d highly recommend this book! Or perhaps you already know that it’s God’s will to heal and have a great foundation for these truths, but you have people in your life who are struggling with the concept of healing: this book will help you communicate the truth as Dave delves into Scripture and comprehensively covers the topic of healing from a Biblical standpoint. If It Be Thy Will will build your faith, increase your confidence, remind you of the heart and nature of the Father, and inspire you to never settle for sickness and powerlessness. Dave also shares his personal testimonies and breakthroughs of when he has prayed and seen others healed, and he will inspire you to step out and do the same.

As someone who has been on the front lines of the healing ministry for almost 20 years now, I would encourage you to read this book with an open heart and mind as you encounter the Healer for yourself! You won’t regret it.

I just finished your book on healing, If It Be Thy Will. I found it to be an easy read; I enjoyed the Scripture references and to be able to look at different translations side by side. You brought things out that I had not seen or thought about before, which was fun. I loved how you covered the Bible from Genesis to Revelation and the flow from Old to New Covenant. It’s very clear how God’s will is to heal today, as it was in the past. . . .if you feel led to share the book with somebody at the Healing Rooms, please do; I think it would bless him tremendously.

I highly recommend David Arns’ book from The Thoughts On Series entitled If It Be Thy Will. I have read many books on healing over the years, but this is by far the most convincing and compelling work, accurately conveying God’s heart for His children to be made whole. Dave uses numerous translations of Scripture to bring forth Biblical truth that God’s desire is to heal spirit, soul and body. Dave skillfully demolishes the idea that the Lord does not heal today! This is a very scholarly and deep work, but it is punctuated with wonderful down-to-earth humor. He brings the essence of Scripture to light in a profoundly deep way. The reader will be filled with new hope and be greatly encouraged.

’It’s amazing how years, even decades of wrong teaching can be overturned by a single miraculous encounter with God.’ I love this quote from David Arns as he takes his readers on a deep-dive of scripture in If It Be Thy Will. This book is an excellent resource highlighting numerous scriptural references indicating a need for the demonstration of physical healing in our everyday Christian lives. This is a call to the church of God to be able to demonstrate signs and wonders because The Word says so! Dave makes an excellent point that sickness was not part of Christ’s suffering, so it shouldn’t be part of ours either. I learned a great deal as I read through this book and saw scriptures in a new way too. This is a book I will be going back to many times. I also love that it concludes with his own personal testimonies of healing prayer.

I LOVED “If It Be Thy Will”. It really put some things in perspective for me. It’s also helpful because Dave goes straight out of the Bible for his sources. So you can look things up for yourself if you’re interested. It’s an easy read with a lot of insight! If you or a loved one is dealing with any emotional or physical sickness and you are wondering if God wants them to be healed. . . THIS IS THE BOOK YOU ARE LOOKING FOR!!

You have addressed the questions I have always had. This is definitely the best book I’ve read on healing. . . .[I] love the way your book flows. Easy to understand, yet profound enough to make it an “aha” moment. Thank you, Dave. I feel very blessed to have had Holy Spirit lead me to you. You are an encourager.

Be Filled With the Spirit answers a lot of people’s questions about the baptism in the Holy Spirit and speaking in tongues. If you are seeking a thoughtful, clear, down to earth, Scriptural presentation of this topic, then this book is for you.

Be Filled With the Spirit is an excellent resource for someone who is interested in learning what the baptism of the Holy Spirit is, is it for today, and is it something that believers need. Dave has presented sound Scriptural answers to these questions and more. I found the book to be especially helpful as a guide to instruct those who have been taught that those things aren’t for today. He makes it very clear through Scripture that every believer needs what the Holy Spirit has to offer! I loved the way he presented the Scriptures in several different translations to help us get a better overall picture of the true meaning, and I loved the logical and methodical way he addressed many common misconceptions about what being filled with the Holy Spirit means. Scripture is our final authority. It is the standard we as believers must use to set the course of our lives. Dave has a deep understanding of God’s word and has obviously spent much time studying it. He shares his insight in a clear and concise way in this book, and I highly recommend it! It will help solidify things you know and establish a strong Scriptural foundation of why being filled with the Spirit is not an option, but a vital necessity for every believer who wants all God has to offer! We will definitely be using it as a resource at the Healing Rooms of Loveland.

To the prospective reader of Going Beyond Christianity 101: you are in for a treat of revelatory teaching that will greatly strengthen your Christian foundation! How I wish that I had had this book in my hands when I first became a Christian. It would have eliminated many years of needless “rabbit trails” and misunderstandings for me. Dave approaches his teaching with 360 degrees of scholarly expertise. His use of so many versions of the Bible along with his many explanations of the original Greek and Hebrew texts greatly illuminates foundational truth. This book is an absolute treasure for the new Christian! Understanding Bible truths would be so helpful in establishing and solidifying his or her Christian foundation. The “older” Christian will find many nuggets of understanding as well. I highly recommend this book! Dave Arns is a very gifted teacher who excels at bringing understanding and revelation from the Word of God.

David Arns’ book Going Beyond Christianity 101 is a wonderful foundational book that outlines topics such as physical healing, impartation and the doctrine of baptisms. This book would be a great resource for new and seasoned Christians alike. The information is presented clearly and it allows the reader to see Scripture verses in a fresh way. I really liked that if a specific Scripture was being looked at the author provided multiple versions/translations of the same Scripture verse to really capture the meaning of the biblical writer. This book is a great resource that compares and contrasts multiple translations of the same verse all in the same place. The author is a true Berean! This is a resource that I will go back and use many times!

When I read Dave’s writing, revelations of wisdom are embedded deeply in my soul, mind, and spirit. I never quite know when whispers of these gifts will emerge. Soothing thoughts, a dream, conversations, writing in a journal, and solving problems are just a few examples. His books invite the reader on a journey to seek God and His truths. Rarely does an author inspire such fun adventures into the character of a loving God. Prepare yourself for chats with the Holy Spirit as you enjoy uniquely inspired words.

Word search puzzles have been a favorite of mine since I was little. Combining Bible learning with something I enjoy was impactful. Thanks David!

From an unsolicited text message one morning: “Dave, your devotional book is the best I have ever used, and I have a bunch of devotional books. I feel there is a powerful prophetic edge to each day’s devotion; thanks for your gift to me and the body of Christ.”

I gave this book to my girlfriend’s husband. The next day she said “I’m happy but I’m mad at you.” She told me her husband kept her up till midnight reading this book to her. He couldn’t believe how similarly God speaks to him as spoken of in this book. David’s books make great gifts!

I have just finished reading your book Hearing from God. Kathline Fountain gave it to me to read. Thank you for giving it to her. I loved it over the top.  . . .  I truly loved your book from God. I leaned into every word. I am going to start through it again. It is alive. It brings life. It brings revelation. It brings presence. It brings wisdom. It reveals the heart of God. It opens my eyes and ears to the “more” of God. His heart. His plans. His world. Him. So good. So big. So powerful. So impacting.

Daily coming to the Lord through Hearing from God Daily Devotionals gives me a broad, in-depth, heaping dose of God’s Word and Way. The personal messages from God supported by Scriptures cited throughout the Bible give me insight into what my Papa is wanting me to focus on for the day. There is space on the page to write what I hear God telling me He wants me to glean from the message and scriptures. No “fluff” here! I love the in-depth heart of God that comes through in this devotional. . . a great way to start every day!

I cannot thank you enough for your amazing Hearing from God devotional. I am enjoying it immensely and love all the Scripture references to take my time with the Lord even deeper, allowing His still, small voice to speak to my soul. It truly does speak to my heart! I am going to treasure it and read it for years to come! What a refreshing, yet insightful and thought-filled (truth-filled) book. It’s absolutely fabulous! I hope it’s something Rob and I can enjoy together. . . maybe even next week as we venture to a church-planting retreat. Thank you for literally placing it into my hands and for all of your continued knowledge and encouragement. Blessings to you.

If the cares of the world are heavy upon your heart as the news tells us of evil at every turn, then this daily devotional will lift your spirit to face each day. Each day’s thoughts are profound, deep, inspirational, and full of prophetic insights. The author’s trust in God’s providence and sovereignty is evident in every word. This is, by far, the best daily devotional that I have ever come across. I agree with the author as he recommends taking time to look up the scriptures that he cites. God’s word is full of promises that are designed to give us hope for our future.

Have you ever met a person that captured your attention in such a way that you wished everyone else could be exposed to their radical faith and love of God? Well, Dave Arns is that kind of person! He carries the Presence of God on him in such a way that you want to learn more about what God is saying to him and this book gave me an opportunity to learn more about how this dance instructor guides and teaches others how ‘lead/follow dance’ can mirror a beautiful marriage. How exciting to read a book that focuses on the importance of dance as a spontaneous act of worship and even scriptural commands to dance in worship (Psalm 149:2–4). Those who are being called to worship and dance will particularly love this book and be so thankful to have all scriptural reference to dancing and worship in one beautiful book.

Prophetic Ministry is a biblically and spiritually solid, easy-to-read book by David Arns. I guarantee that you will learn new things as you read it. It is completely balanced, theologically accurate and passionately practical, teaching you how to begin moving in the prophetic. Every sentence ministered insight and life to me as I’m sure it will to you also.   David has spent his lifetime examining Scriptures carefully to see exactly what they teach. His presentation is full of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation and his grasp of it is thorough and complete.   I would say this is one of the most balanced and helpful books on the prophetic I have read. I unreservedly recommend it to you.

I just finished looking through David Arns’ book, Prophetic Ministry: A Biblical Look at Seeing. I was amazed at the depth of research and commented to David, “My first thought was the book could be used as a primary reference tool for a semester-long course on the prophetic.” This is one of those books you want to acquire and keep in your study library for future reference.

In Prophetic Ministry: A Biblical Look at Seeing, David Arns succinctly asks, and answers common questions that address much controversy regarding the prophetic today. In clear terms, David speaks to the problem of overly negative aspects of the prophetic movement and offers keen insight into the distinction between prophetic ministry as expressed from the Old Testament paradigm and the character of the same in the New Testament setting. For those that are either new to the prophetic or having years of experience in this dynamic movement, David’s book is a worthy treatment that is both enlightening and entertaining.

In flight school, aspiring pilots are taught in a flight simulator to take note of what is going on with their bodies in an oxygen-deprived environment. During this time, they are trained to be aware of what is going on with their bodies in the event that something might occur on an actual flight. Similarly, the Lord trains us to be mindful of what is going on in the spiritual realm when He speaks to us prophetically so we can join what He is doing.   In his new book, Prophetic Ministry: A Biblical Look at Seeing, David Arns provides a comprehensive study of the wide spectrum of ways God supernaturally speaks to His people. Backed by hundreds of Scriptural examples and actual ministry experiences, David masterfully unpacks what prophetic ministry looks like and how it can be implemented in and through your life.

Thank you so much for sharing your book with me, Prophetic Ministry: A Biblical Look at Seeing. I found it to be a very good tool for sharing with people who wonder if the prophetic is for today. You used many Scriptures and lots of reference material. I thought your examples using different people were very good. I see that you are a very prolific writer and have taken on writing many books on a variety of somewhat controversial topics. I think you mentioned something like you are writing to help people know why they believe. I think I could easily use your book as a reference for the prophetic.

I think your book is very thorough. It makes for a good textbook that could be used at Bible Colleges—along with someone who is serious about the prophetic.

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading Dave Arns’ latest book, Prophetic Ministry: A Biblical Look at Seeing. He thoroughly presents Scripture proving that we are all to hear from God. I especially appreciated the emphasis on the instructions of Paul concerning prophecy in I Corinthians 14, where he encourages us all to prophesy. Dave reminds us that these Scriptures are written to the Corinthians who were babes in Christ, lacking spiritual maturity. What an encouragement for all of us, that we can truly all prophesy! I believe every Christian should read this book to gain a Scriptural understanding of this powerful gift the Lord has given us to comfort, encourage, and edify the body of Christ.

I just returned from a three-day gathering of leaders from around the world in Washington DC. When I received the invitation, I knew it was time. It was time to join my hand, my anointing, my gifts, my voice with theirs. We all were from different generations, different ethnic backgrounds, different geographical and socioeconomic locations, and different denominational streams. We each had a different story of how we received the call, the path God led us on to bring us here, the heartaches, suffering, victories, and miracles we have experienced along the way, and the mission we still labor toward fulfilling. What we shared, besides the love of Christ, was our gender. We are all leaders. We are all female.

It is time. There is phenomenon happening all over the world right now. God is stirring up a global revival movement and within this move is a move of God among the people-group called “female.” Women are being raised up in unprecedented numbers, touched and anointed by the Holy Spirit, and given a vision and mission. The lost will be saved, the poor will be fed and clothed, the orphans will be placed in families, sex trafficking will be exposed and ended, abortion will become known as a demonically inspired holocaust, women who are raped and abused and killed for “honor” will be helped, healed, and loved, education in third-world countries will be impacted, human rights will be championed, families will be reconciled, the social-service and child-protection serviced will be reformed, and nations will experience revival. On the forefront of every revival movement there has been a women’s movement, as they received the call of God to bring Jesus to every nation and every sector of society; business, family, religion, entertainment, media, education, and government.

It is time. Dave Arns’ book, Arise, My Beloved Daughter, is right on time. Dave joins his voice to the army of others God is raising up to say women are called, anointed, and appointed by God without limitation due to gender. He has written a clear, concise, biblically based book, offering us an opportunity to look again at Scripture and what it has to say, without bias, about women in ministry. His insights are grounded on biblical emphasis and the heart of God for women.

Chapter by chapter, Dave Arns logically and biblically tackles the difficult passages of Scripture, asking and answering the questions: Can women answer a call of God to ministry as leaders, pastors, apostles, and prophets? Can they teach men, speak in church, plant churches and evangelize? Did God, Jesus, Paul, Peter, or Timothy exclude women from answering a call of God involving leading and teaching in the church? If not, why has the church held such a theology of women in ministry?

The answers to those questions are found in this book. Arise, My Beloved Daughter is not only an antidote to the traditional misinterpretations and limitations placed on women in the church, but also to the misguided feminist movement. A women’s movement has nothing to do with replacing men, hating men, dominating men, or oppressing men. It has nothing to do with revenge or proving our worth or women’s reproductive right to choose. It has everything to do with advancing the Kingdom of God, demonstrating the Gospel, and bringing in the harvest. Who should read this book? Everyone. Men, women, young, old, individuals, families, young people (especially the next generation), churched and unchurched, small groups, prayer groups, house churches, and all denominations. Read the book and then send copies to those you know. Let it bring a renewing of our mindset about what God wants for the people-group called female. Join God in what He is already doing: raising up women all over the world.

For too long I have heard the lament of gifted and brilliant women saying, “There was no place in the church where I was allowed to use my gifts and education, so I became a lawyer (or doctor, business owner, author, producer, etc.).” It is time for us to throw open the door to the people-group called female and welcome them to bring their gifts to the Kingdom table. The harvest is ripe and every laborer is needed. There is no time to waste. As in Judges when “village life ceased,” it is time for a mother’s movement, a women’s movement in the Spirit of Deborah to arise and restore the streets to dwell in (Judges 5:7 NKJV). It is time for women to be supported and celebrated as they answer the call of Psalm 68:11 (AMP): “The Lord gives the word of power; the women who bear and publish the word are a great host.”

Lastly, a note to the men reading this book: We need you. We need you to continue strong and unwavering in your call. We need you to continue to answer the all on your lives. When we take our place beside you, we need you to know we are ready to run together for the sake of the Kingdom.

While this book may challenge a “good ol’ boy world,” the Truth of God’s Word still gives place to set the captives free. There have been many great women from the beginning of time whom God has used to further His Kingdom. I found this book to be a great gift: that one could gain freedom from the traditions of man and enlightened into a full gospel of good news for all of mankind. God’s faithfulness always uses people to outsmart even the greatest of minds with the simplicity of His Truth. This book offers a revelation found in the journey of one daring to believe that God wasn’t lessening women’s roles in the body of Christ.

Quite the contrary, this book is thought-provoking, informative, and full of a richness that brings so much life to the body of Christ. Its revelational content is a breath of fresh air given and needed on a topic that has in the past been easily rejected, ignored, avoided or pre-decided by one’s own deductions/opinion. The study of God’s Word brings revelation and wisdom to those who seek it and brings life to those who find it. Clearly this book gives opportunity to experience a healthy look into God’s original design of His own character and nature, and brings an extremely valuable facet into the light. Arise, My Beloved Daughter gives access to a place in the Kingdom that religion has tried to stop many from entering into. Well done. . . the enemy’s plan has been foiled again. Glory to God!

I’ve just finished reading Arise, My Beloved Daughter. Well done, Dave! This comprehensive book, on a subject that is much on God’s heart at this time, is well-written and researched. Dave’s approach is biblical, solid, clearly laid out and it leaves you in no doubt as to God’s intended purpose and place for women. In it is a clarion call for women everywhere to rise and take their place as a beloved daughter who was born to make a difference in the world she lives in, wherever that may be.

Thank you, Dave, for writing this book! It is so timely in this season for the Body of Christ. Women all over the earth are being called up higher, into greater positions of responsibility, although there can still be that age-old “Woman Question” lurking in darkness. Dave’s passion and revelation of God’s Word are portrayed in his writings, and this book Arise, My Beloved Daughter is no exception. He allows the truth of God’s word to answer the questions loudly and clearly around this subject and take away confusion. I believe this book has the potential to change hearts.

I just finished reading Arise, My Beloved Daughter and am so encouraged to have such a great resource for both men and women to help unpack Scriptures which can be misunderstood or “lost in translation.” Thank you for taking the time to dig deeper into Scriptures that, in some translations, seem to limit women as opposed to releasing them to do “every good work.”   What an encouraging book and great resource for both women and men! This is a stunning and thorough book addressing areas that have limited women in the past. We are stronger and more beautiful together. This book sets the record straight on how we can all stand, together, as the body of Christ. I am so thankful that the new generation of women (and men) being raised up in the church have such a great resource available as they walk boldly and confidently in their callings.   Thank you for letting me get a “sneak peek” at your latest book! I was particularly impacted by the sections touching on translation bias. It was shocking how the same Hebrew or Greek word would be interpreted differently depending on who was being addressed, men or women. Oh my!   Great job, Dave!! You are such an encouragement to the Body of Christ!

Arise, My Beloved Daughter was a powerful book for me to read. It took me on an emotional journey as I was confronted with the historical prejudice and neglect that women throughout history have faced. Deep sadness turned to inspiration and hope as the author thoroughly explained the Scriptures that support God’s call on women throughout Biblical history. I found this book extremely helpful in writing my practicum paper, as the author cites valuable resources to support his points. I highly recommend this book! It is a must-read for women whose heart is to fulfill the call of God on their lives.

I’ve just finished reading Arise, My Beloved Daughter and am so blessed! David Arns has done his homework and we all get to benefit from his hours of research and deep dives into Greek and Hebrew. He explains the hard-to-understand passages around women in leadership in sound biblical fashion coupled with anointed insights straight from Father’s heart.
   It is my privilege to recommend this book to you. Thoroughly scriptural, refreshingly down-to-earth, and completely liberating. Thank you, Dave, for this wonderful gift to the Body of Christ!
