Tutu's role as the Chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission taught him much about forgiveness. If you asked anyone what they thought was going to happen to South Africa after apartheid, almost universally it was predicted that the country would be devastated by a comprehensive bloodbath. Yet, instead of revenge and retribution, this new nation chose to tread the difficult path of confession, forgiveness, and reconciliation. Each of us has a deep need to forgive and to be forgiven. After much reflection on the process of forgiveness, Tutu has seen that there are four important steps to healing: Admitting the wrong and acknowledging the harm; Telling one's story and witnessing the anguish; Asking for forgiveness and granting forgiveness; and renewing or releasing the relationship. Forgiveness is hard work. Sometimes it even feels like an impossible task. But it is only through walking this fourfold path that Tutu says we can free ourselves of the endless and unyielding cycle of pain and retribution. The Book of Forgiving is both a touchstone and a tool, offering Tutu's wise advice and showing the way to experience forgiveness. Ultimately, forgiving is the only means we have to heal ourselves and our aching world.\"--Provided by publisher.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/desmond-tutu-books\"\u003eDesmond Tutu\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 229\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e William Collins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0007512880\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"William Collins","offers":[{"title":"New — £763.30","offer_id":47908322345137,"sku":"SB-0007512880-C0","price":763.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0007512880.jpg?v=1789396958"},{"product_id":"no-future-without-forgiveness","title":"No Future Without Forgiveness","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe establishment of South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission was a pioneering international event. Never had any country sought to move forward from despotism to democracy both by exposing the atrocities committed in the past and achieving reconciliation with its former oppressors. At the center of this unprecedented attempt at healing a nation has been Archbishop Desmond Tutu, whom President Nelson Mandela named as Chairman of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. With the final report of the Commission just published, Archbishop Tutu offers his reflections on the profound wisdom he has gained by helping usher South Africa through this painful experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003cb\u003eNo Future Without Forgiveness\u003c\/b\u003e, Tutu argues that true reconciliation cannot be achieved by denying the past.  But nor is it easy to reconcile when a nation \"looks the beast in the eye.\" Rather than repeat platitudes about forgiveness, he presents a bold spirituality that recognizes the horrors people can inflict upon one another, and yet retains a sense of idealism about reconciliation. With a clarity of pitch born out of decades of experience, Tutu shows readers how to move forward with honesty and compassion to build a newer and more humane world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/desmond-tutu-books\"\u003eDesmond Tutu\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e National Geographic Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780385496902\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"National Geographic Books","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £2.02","offer_id":47911053918385,"sku":"SB-0385496907-C3","price":2.02,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0385496907.jpg?v=1789206246"},{"product_id":"an-african-prayer-book-1","title":"An African Prayer Book","description":"\u003cp\u003ePrayer, our conversation with God, needs no set formulas or flowery phrases.

Here are Jesus’s own encounters with Africa, which provided him refuge at the beginning of his life (from the murderous King Herod) and aid at its end (in the person of Simon of Cyrene, who helped Jesus carry his cross).
