Desmond Tutu demonstrated his commitment to God through his unwavering advocacy for justice, peace, and human rights, which he viewed as rooted in his Christian faith. As an Anglican bishop and anti-apartheid activist, he emphasized the importance of forgiveness and reconciliation, reflecting his belief in the teachings of Christ. Tutu’s sermons and public speeches often highlighted the moral imperative to oppose injustice, embodying the principles of love and compassion central to his spirituality. His dedication to these values exemplified his deep commitment to serving God and humanity.
Preached
Desmond Tutu (born 1931) is an Anglican archbishop emeritus of Cape Town, South Africa and recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. He has written numerous books for adults and children — including The Rainbow People of God and, together with his good friend the Dalai Lama, The Book of Joy.
He supports it. The retired Anglican Archbishop says he would not worship a homophobic god and if heaven is homophobic, he will refuse to enter it. Tutu states that he is as passionately opposed to homophobia as he was to apartheid. I enclose a link to an excerpt from a 2011 book he wrote, in which he discusses why he is in favor of equal rights for gay men and lesbians.
By learning, teaching and obeying the Torah.

Nuns choose to cut their hair as a symbol of their commitment to religious life and to show their dedication to God by letting go of worldly attachments.
Without faith, it is impossible to please God. Faith would cause commitment.
