Our Q & A Continues With Peter Arnold, Christian Angelic Mystical Suspense Thriller Author, "Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story" (eBook series)

Heaven's Doorway Press - Q & A with author, Peter Arnold:

Question: Peter, in your eBook, "Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story," you embrace the mystical theme of 'the lion and the lamb,' what intrigues you most about the metaphor?

"Our Lord Jesus Christ was the perfect spotless sacrificial lamb, yet in the meekness of this gentle creature is the foreshadowing of the 'Lion of Judah,' strength in obedience to his paschal mission. Saint Augustine in one of his sermons (#375A),'the lion stands for Christ resurrected, the lamb for Christ's sacrifice', enduring death as a lamb, yet devouring death as a lion."

There is a beautiful Christian praise song, called the "Lion and the Lamb" by Leeland with extraordinary lyrics!

In this pic below, is a faint mystical apparition of the 'Lion and the Lamb' on the marble floor before the tabernacle at Saint Monica's Catholic Community Church in California.  Can you see the lamb?  Once you locate the lamb, then look directly above adjacent (almost hugging) is a profile of a majestic lion's head! 

Question, Why did you choose the main title of your book, "Armor of Light"?

"Let us cast off the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light." (Romans 13:11)  Saint Paul also proclaims, "Put on the armor of God; then you will be able to stand firm when the worst happens; you will fulfill all your duties and hold your ground.  Stand firm and let truth be a belt around your waist."

"I love the sacred armor: 'Put round you the belt of truth; put on the breastplate of righteousness; for shoes wear zeal for the Gospel of peace; take up the shield of faith to extinguish all the burning arrows of the evil one; take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God.' Also, 'Clothe us with the weapons of light and unite us under the one banner of love, that we may receive our eternal reward after the battle of earthly life.'"

"During these dark times having emerged from the pandemic, wars and ongoing threat of climate change, the "Armor of Light" is essential in our earthly battle as sons and daughters of the light."

Our Q & A Continues With Peter Arnold, Christian Angelic Mystical Suspense Thriller Author, "Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story" (eBook series)

Heaven's Doorway Press - Q & A with author, Peter Arnold:

Question: Peter, who are some of your favorite fiction authors and how have they inspired you as a writer?

"Paulo Coelho's classic book, 'The Alchemist,' has resonated with me for years. A remarkably beautiful iconic mystical story told with tender restraint setting a high bar for the sweeping hero's journey and quest. I also loved Umberto Eco's, 'The Name of the Rose,' for its extraordinary detail of medieval monastic life as a background setting for a murder mystery. Then there's author, Flannery O' Connor, a controversial Catholic writer whose quote, 'In the land of the dead, you have to shout. Those who are spiritually unaware, you have to do something big and bold to get their attention . . .' She was fearless with her writing style inspiring me to 'take off the training wheels' on story ideas and structure."   

Question: In the pic at the top, would you please tell us about it?

"Yes, my MacBook Air's screen showing the manuscript, 'Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story"and behind it, two icon print images of our Blessed Mother Mary and our Lord Jesus Christ.   Several years ago, while living in Santa Monica, California, I was researching online the ancient monasteries of Mount Athos in Greece for this eBook, 'Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story.' I discovered many of the monasteries are repositories for religious painting icons for hundreds of years. One day, I was yearning for some religious devotional images and looking down from my apartment window was this discarded pair on the ground! I practically flew downstairs and rescued them.  While they are only humble prints, they are sacred to me as an inspiring sign to persevere on this project."  

Question: Do you have a favorite Saint? 

"Yes, my favorite Saint is the Apostle, Saint Peter, my Confirmation Name."
