I Beg to Differ by Peter Storey

Publikasiedatum: 10/18

'Let me say to Mr Botha: Apartheid is doomed! It has been condemned in the Councils of God, rejected by every nation on the planet and is no longer believed in by the people who gave it birth. Apartheid is the god that has failed.' So preached Bishop Peter Storey in 1986. Challenging apartheid wherever he could, he led the SA Methodist Church into what many whites saw as uncomfortable 'political' territory.

Join him in his inspiring journey from sailor-turned-minister to the South African Council of Churches leadership in its darkest hour, from tending to Robert Sobukwe and Nelson Mandela on Robben Island, through the forced removal of District Six and to the storm surrounding Stompie Seipei's murder. I Beg to Differ spans a parishbusinessbi minister’s sorrows and joys, founding LifeLine SA, the bombing of Khotso House and a close shave with death with Desmond Tutu. Storey tells how faith helped him to have the courage of his convictions amid the tear gas and violence of the apartheid regime.
