What extent of tragedy can the human spirit endure and still be able to go on to lead a fruitful, meaningful life? There is perhaps no better person to pose this question to than Lorena’s guest today, Gilbert Tuhabonye, a professional running coach who, as a young teenager, escaped the Rwandan genocide of the 1990’s in the centuries old Hutu-Tutsi conflict. Gilbert recounts his upbringing in poverty, the descent of his homeland into bloodshed, and his miraculous escape from torture and almost certain-death at the hands of his Hutu captors. Listen as the two discuss Gilbert’s journey of hope and healing as he built a new life in the United States; a life built on faith, family, and running.
