Ubuntu: I in You and You in Me
"With each chapter of this timely and compelling volume, Michael strains time and again--and ever more urgently--to have us see as he has seen, to hear as he has heard, to feel as he now feels, to sense more intuitively, to internalize more instinctively, to actualize more spontaneously, the blindingly simple yet inexplicably elusive Gospel imperative to love one another. He does so as a teacher, with all the compassion and grace, passion and delight, tenderness and thoughtfulness, love and humility--that is, with the spirit, the life force. Indeed that is the essence of Ubuntu." --Jenny Plane Te Paa, a theologian and dean of St. John's College in Auckland, New Zealand, has written extensively on Anglican Communion matters"Michael's book helps us all to see that we are all inextricably linked together. We forget this at our peril. The good news, however, is that God's love will not leave us alone. It is my prayer that, in the same way, Ubuntu will not leave us alone." --Archbishop Desmond Tutu
