Description
In 1994, Immaculee Ilibagiza watched in horror as the forces of hatred plunged her beloved African homeland of Rwanda into three months of genocidal butchery in which more than a million innocent men, women, and children-including her own family-were brutally slaughtered.
Immaculee's first two Rwandan memoirs, the international bestseller, Left to Tell; and the highly acclaimed sequel, Led By Faith, chronicle her miraculous survival and remarkable ability to triumph over darkness and despair by embracing the power of God's love and forgiveness to rid her heart of hatred.
Now, in Sowing The Seeds of Forgiveness, Immaculee reveals how the simple message of forgiveness in her earlier books resonated in the hearts of readers around the world. We join Immaculee as she travels from Iceland to Japan, from Hollywood to the Holy Land, to the White House luncheon and a meeting with the first family, and much more. In each country, no matter what the culture or language, Immaculee is greeted with the same question: 'How do we forgive?' Her answer is always the same, and it is what Sowing The Seeds of Forgiveness is truly about-'Love.'
