In 1994, the world witnessed the genocide against the Tutsi of Rwanda. Many rushed to justify the genocide by blaming it on a plane crash that killed President Habyarimana of Rwanda and President Ntaryamira of Burundi. However, I was born in the Congo in the 1960s and I grew up with the fear of being killed one day because of my ethnicity.

I escaped the killings of Tutsi in the Congo, moved to Rwanda after the genocide, and contributed to the rebuilding of a destroyed nation suspended between hope and uncertainty. Despite being subjected to humiliation and fear all my life, I refused to be a prisoner of ethnic hatred.

With more than ninety percent of the population being Christians in the land of a thousand hills, Hutu and Tutsi should live peacefully. Where Christ is, the dividing wall of hostility has been destroyed. Otherwise, we preachers of the good news, and Christian politicians, should ask ourselves if we are faithfully fulfilling our mission.

This book is about overcoming evil through spiritual values.
