This Easter season at St. Luke, we invite you into a story of hope—one that refuses to
yield to despair.
We will be reading "Made for Goodness: And Why This Makes All the
Difference" by Desmond Tutu and Mpho Tutu, New York: HarperOne, 2010.
In a time when many are made to feel powerless—or even hopeless—we turn again to
the Gospel story we have walked through in Lent: a journey that leads us to the dawn of Easter morning, where light breaks through and shadows do not have the final word. So too in this book. Written not only by a survivor of apartheid South Africa, but by a witness to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission—a process that laid bare some of the darkest realities of the human condition—this work dares to proclaim something deeper: that we are, at our core, made for goodness.
With Tutu and his daughter as our guides, we will explore how that spark of goodness remains alive within us—and how hope, grounded in truth, can shape the way we live, love, and act in the world.
