Synopsis

How could an African country of eight million people be plunged into a chaos of slaughter which left a million dead? And now, after the killing, how can widows, orphans, killers, and survivors find the heart to recover and rebuild? In this stunning and uplifting account, Dr. Callum Henderson combines research and person experience to answer both questions. Above all, he reveals a new spirit at work in Rwanda, as some who committed unspeakable deeds are able to repent, and survivors are able to forgive.

“A powerful and well researched narrative of the genocide in Rwanda. Though its poignancy paints a graphic picture of the pain; it also takes us to place where, even in the deepest suffering, forgiveness and reconciliation can shine.” John Glass, General Superintendent Elim Churches
