Over the years the same questions get asked of Desmond Tutu, the
archbishop, Nobel Peace Prize winner, and veteran of the moral
movement that ended apartheid in South Africa: "How can you be so
hopeful after witnessing so much evil?" "Why are you so sure
goodness will triumph in the end?" This book is his answer.
Now, more than any other time in history, our world needs this
message: that we are made for goodness and it is up to us to live
up to our destiny.
We recognize Archbishop Tutu from the headlines as an
inspirational figure who has witnessed some of the world's most
sinister moments and chosen to be an ambassador of reconciliation
amid political, diplomatic, and natural disasters. Now, we get a
glimpse into his personal spirituality--and a better understanding
of the man behind a lifetime of good works. In this intimate and
personal sharing of his heart, written with his daughter, Episcopal
priest Mpho Tutu, Tutu engages his reader with touching stories
from his own life, as well as grisly memories from his work in the
darkest corners of the world. There, amid the darkness, he calls us
to hope, to joy, and to claim the goodness that we were made for.
Tutu invites us to take on the disciplines of goodness, the
practices that are key to finding fulfillment, meaning, and
happiness for our lives.
