About this listen

For three months in the spring of 1994, the African nation of Rwanda descended into one of the most vicious and bloody genocides the world has ever seen. Immaculée Ilibagiza, a young university student, miraculously survived the savage killing spree that left most of her family, friends, and a million of her fellow citizens dead. Immaculée's remarkable story of survival was documented in her first book, Left to Tell: Discovering God Amidst the Rwandan Holocaust.

In Led By Faith, Immaculée takes us with her as her remarkable journey continues. Through her simple and eloquent voice, we experience her hardships and heartache as she struggles to survive and to find meaning and purpose in the aftermath of the holocaust. It is the story of a naïve and vulnerable young woman, orphaned and alone, navigating through a bleak and dangerously hostile world with only an abiding faith in God to guide and protect her.

Immaculée fends off sinister new predators, seeks out and comforts scores of children orphaned by the genocide, and searches for love and companionship in a land where hatred still flourishes. Then, fearing again for her safety as Rwanda's war-crime trials begin, Immaculée flees to America to begin a new chapter of her life as a refugee and immigrant - a stranger in a strange land.

With the same courage and faith in God that led her through the darkness of genocide, Immaculée discovers a new life that was beyond her wildest dreams as a small girl in a tiny village in one of Africa's poorest countries.

It is in the United States, her adopted country, where Immaculée can finally look back at all that has happened to her and truly understand why God spared her life . . . so that she would be left to tell her story to the world.

The world needs to learn from this experience

We shouldn't let the suffering that has occurred in history be in vain by repeating the same mistakes. Those of us in countries that are deemed safe should not be so flippant about mocking and dehumanising groups we disagree with, no matter how awful they may be, because even in our words we sow the motive of us vs them, one group more morally deserving than the other as if we know with certainty that we would not be the same as our opponents if roles had been reversed. We might think our dehumanising would never be taken so far as genocide, but it starts with this seed, with this motive in the heart, and is it not arrogance to presume that we are somehow more morally advanced that our own country would stop things before they reached such a level?
There are powerful ways to put an end to the cycles of oppression, for consequence and justice to occur, without resorting to dehumanising our 'enemy'. So much history shows us time and time again how this only leads to repeated cyclic harm. Bless the author for sharing this story, a light to humanity.

Led by faith

An excellent book a must to read.A story of the aftermath of genocide and how one woman's faith and complete trust in God helped to heal the pain of losing her family and finally being able to forgive their killers.

A great read.

Wow what a great read. Had me thinking the whole way through. I did wonder what happened after the first book. Reminded me how blessed I am to live the life I do.
