The Book of Forgiving, written together by the Nobel Peace Laureate
Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and his daughter Revd Mpho Tutu, offers a
deeply personal testament and guide to the process of forgiveness.
All of us have at times needed both to forgive and be forgiven -
whether small, everyday harms or real traumas. But the path to
forgiveness is not easy, and the process unclear. How do we let go
of resentment when we have been harmed, at times irreparably? How
do we forgive and still pursue justice? How do we heal our hearts,
and move on? How do we forgive ourselves for the harm we have
caused others? Drawing on his memories of reconciliation in
post-apartheid South Africa, Archbishop Desmond Tutu has identified
four concrete steps to forgiveness through which we must all pass
if we are to reach our destination: 1) Admitting the wrong and
acknowledging the harm 2) Telling one's story and witnessing the
anguish 3) Asking for forgiveness and granting forgiveness 4)
Renewing or releasing the relationship Each chapter contains
reflections and personal stories, as well as exercises for
practising each step of the path. The Book of Forgiving is a
touchstone and tool for anyone seeking the freedom of forgiveness:
an inspiring guide to healing ourselves and creating a more united
world.
Jacob Hochstetler is a peace-loving Amish settler on the
Pennsylvania frontier when Native American warriors, goaded on by
the hostilities of the French and Indian War, attack his family one
September night in 1757. Taken captive by the warriors and grieving
for the family members just killed, Jacob finds his beliefs about
love and nonresistance severely tested.
Jacob endures a hard winter as a prisoner in an Indian
longhouse. Meanwhile, some members of his congregation the first
Amish settlement in America move away for fear of further
attacks.
Based on actual events, Jacob's Choice describes how one man's
commitment to pacifism leads to a season of captivity, a
complicated romance, an unrelenting search for missing family
members, and an astounding act of forgiveness and
reconciliation.
