About this title

About the Author

John Arndt lives in Tulsa, OK, and first fell in love with reading as a child, picking his way through legends of King Arthur's knights and curious hobbits. His first love language is fantasy/science fiction, but his studies in Christian Formation have led him to write to help others live well. His nonfiction is based on his vocation as a transformational coach, CliftonStrengths guide, and spiritual director to those hopehungry, restless and wildering.
