  • "1984년 노벨평화상 수상자 데스몬드 투투 대주교와 그의 딸 성공회 사제 음포 투투가 전하는 희망의 메시지 선하게 태어난 우리. 이 책은 남아프리카공화국에서 믿기 힘들 정도의 정신적 충격과 잔혹행위를 견디고 무수한 폭력을 경험하는 등 불의와 고통을 이기며 용서와 화해를 이끈 저자의 가정과 역사적 사건에 대한 이야기, 많은 이들에게 친숙한 성서 이야기를 담고 있다. 나직하고도 시적인 신앙 고백과 종교 지도자로서의 메시지, 그리고 양심에 목소리에 따라 불의에 담대하게 맞선 저자의 감동적인 삶을 만나볼 수 있다. 저자가 다닌 지역들을 함께 둘러보고, 배운 교훈들을 함께 들어보고, 만난 사람들을 함께 만나며 소망과 기쁨의 비결을 알고, 우리에게 언제나 평화가 함께할 것임을, 인간의 선함과 하나 된다는 깨달음을 얻을 수 있다."

  • "We know all too well the cruelties, hurts, and hatreds that poison life on our planet. But my daughter and I have come together to write this book because we know that the catalogue of injuries that we can and do inflict on one another is not the whole story of humanity, not by a long measure. We are indeed made for something more. We are made for goodness.'from Made for Goodness 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."@en
  • ""Archbishop Desmond Tutu has witnessed some of the world's darkest moments, for decades fighting the racist government policy of apartheid and since then being an ambassador of peace amidst political, diplomatic, and natural disasters. Yet people continue to find him one of the most joyful and hopeful people they have encountered. In Made for Goodness, Tutu shares his source of strength and optimism. Written with his daughter, Mpho, who is also an ordained Anglican minister, Tutu argues that God has made us for goodness, and when we simply start walking in the direction of this calling, God is there to meet us, encourage us, embrace us. God has made the world as a grand theater for us to work out this call to goodness; it is up to us to live up to this calling, but God is there to help us every step of the way. So tackling our worst problems takes on new meaning and is bostered with hope and the expectation that that is exactly where God will show up. Father and daughter offer an inspiring message of hope that will transform readers into activists for change and blessing"--"
