Templeton Grant Given to Film-maker Laura Waters Hinson

Congratulations to documentary film-maker Laura Waters Hinson who recently learned that she had been awarded a $262,000 grant from the Templeton foundation. The grant will allow her to take the film, As We Forgive, which inspired my book, to Rwanda for its international premiere in April. It will also cover the costs for a Rwandan screening tour director to take the film to schools, villages, and churches across Rwanda to encourage dialogue about forgiveness.

Here's a trailer for her film. In it you will see five of the people whose stories are also in my book:

Congratulations, Laura!
