Summary

Reaching out to listeners of all religious backgrounds, Desmond Tutu shows us how to transform suffering into joy both in our lives and in our world. He tells us that God dreams of a world where laughter, love, and peace reign, and where we realize that we are all members of one family, God's family. In this extremely personal and liberating message, Father Tutu helps us "see with the eyes of the heart" and cultivate the qualities of forgiveness, humility, generosity, and courage that we need to realize God's Dream personally and globally.

Wow, where do I start?

I'm so pleased Desmond Tutu narrated his book. So lovely to hear his voice again.
Written with such honesty and humility. He interviewed very well over the radio. Black South Africans went through so much discrimination during those awful apartheid days. How fellow beings can treat people like that just because of their skin colour beats me. I grew up in that era, I'm so grateful to have had wonderful Black friends, intelligent, caring, generous. I'm sorry for the mess the current ANC government has made of Nelson Mandela's legacy, but at least the White folk are recognised, they don't have a curfew, they don't have to carry passes. If you haven't read Donald Woods' book about Steven Biko, highly recommended as well.

A wonderful, uplifting and challenging book

As Desmond Tutu’s life ended recently, I wanted to hear his voice and listen to his wisdom again. I couldn’t have come upon a better book. I’ve listened to a chapter a day for a few days and have been transformed by the message. So much so that I’m going to relisten!

A Dream that gives everyone Hope

What did you like most about God Has a Dream?

The sensitivity with which Desmond Tutu reads his story, his gentle humour and the grace with which he describes some intensely difficult times in his own life and in the history of South Africa makes this an excellent book to listen to.

What did you like best about this story?

I loved the honesty in Bishop Tutu's writing. Whether he writes about an horrific injustice or about a funny episode, his sincerity makes it completely convincing.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I listened to this book in one sitting (well, one bread baking session) - and then again! It is one of those books that one can never tire of.
