Desmond Tutu: A Saint for Our Times

Tuesday, November 10, 2020
6:30 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. | Held Via Zoom

The Very Rev. Dr. Michael Battle, the Herbert Thompson Professor of Church and Society at General Theological Seminary, delivered our 2020 Fall Theology Lecture. Prof. Battle introduced us to Archbishop Tutu’s spiritual life and how it shaped his commitment to restorative justice and reconciliation.  He also offered insights into how Archbishop Tutu was able to persevere against a system that opposed his own humanity.

Prof. Battle’s newest book, Desmond Tutu: A Spiritual Biography of South Africa’s Confessor, is published by Westminster John Knox Press.
