Friends, every like and comment is very important to us, we really value our community and try to make an interesting interview or video for you every time, subscribe to us! www.youtube.com/@theealfahouse
Thank you for this content, but for the sake of objectivity, if you going to title your post "African Spirituality vs Christianity', it would be good to hear from both sides. Hopefully we get to hear a response that presents more than a colonial representation of christianity.
@@joshuamadalitsochiundiza8638 Maybe you have a point. But I am wondering which representation of Christianity is not colonial in Afrika? Except for Ethiopia, where Christianity is also not indigenous, by the way: Acts 8: 26 - 40. It is an externally infused ideology. Tell me of an Afrikan community that was christian in 10 BCE? In 476 at the fall of the Roman Empire? Or of an Afrikan community where France, Britain, Portugal, Italy, and Spain, did not infuse Christianity into the colonial philosophy. Are you up for an interview, to educate us on the Non-Colonial Christianity, to bring the balance? It would be interesting to learn.
@@DrKhanyiLitchfieldTshabalala Siyabonga Mama Tshabalala for your response. I am in agreement to some extent on your point of external infusion of Christianity, but my point dwells ultimately on the African response to Christianity, the philosophical benchmark being African realism, where Africa has always had a response to external infusions, whether forced or of our free will. Christianity is recent in the context of African history, but its adoption and adaption locates that premise of African realism that is the crux of Africa's response to Christianity. This is manifested by individuals like Emperor Ezana, Prophetess Kimpa Vita, Simon Kimbangu, St Augustine of Hippo, Johanne Marange etc. Or the unspoken Abba Mikael who had a brief but great influence on reformer Martin luther. I wouldnt mind an interview, I am keen to learn. Asante sana for your response, I am also your student, with many questions.
You’re right. It needs to go viral, so that Africans don’t fall into the trap. Accepting African spirituality implies, denying, rejecting Jesus Christ. She also wants us to believe that hell/heaven do not exist. NO THANK YOU.
@@Jiv509 same here, am also Indian. I think there is a rise of the ancient spiritual methods all over the world and am here for it!. Abrahamic religions are going out the door it seems these days
Spirituality is creating your own reality by learning from your stepping stones and raising your vibration to be your best self and achieve your mission goals in this lifetime.
actually this makes alot sense to me... i kind of live like that whithout even being aware of the tradition. it just feels natural to me... i mean most religions are more about power and control then anything else ... they lost the essence ... i think those 4 core principles are the essence and also the reason why its just healthy to choose to live by thees "values". ….. being spiritual not religeous... doing the right thing for the greater good not just for personal gain... no need to live on your knees as long you dont put those close to you down. dont be so greedy. there would be enough for all of us... but yo i guess every herd got its black sheep but the european mind is more down whith the devil, the EGO ... false light blindet by there beauty lol . ...who are the real Savages? not everything that shines is gold... the devil is a liar. no matter which shade of brown or whatever... positiv giving or Negative taking... balance just some thoughts and thnx for providing these infos. PEACE out & greetings from Germany
Yes, Dhitik_scott. She has been my spiritual therapist for a while now. She’s amazing and natural. She has really been helpful guiding me in unlocking my full potentials spirituality is a right meant for everyone to enjoy, I’ve experienced so much spiritual awakening and healing period over the years now just for her sake.

I love African spirituality. I think it's the best spirituality on Earth. We do not have any one between us and our Creator. You don't need to pass or go through somebody's name to get to Our Source. I tried all religions including Christianity nothing surpasses African Spirituality. I'm happy that I'm practicing something that my ancestors believed in.

Everything she said I agree with. From politics to women not showing their own hair. I totally agree, and of course what she said about the patriarchy is a system, and spirituality is about balance. I've stopped going to church since covid and I'm still in the midst of my spiritual learning.
Honestly, I respect this woman in the highest regard, I left Christianity when I was 15 and never looked back. I'm 29 now and the journey of going within and becoming spiritual was and will forever be the best decision I've ever made. The detoxing process from Christianity to spiritualism is no joke.... everything this woman has spoken about is so true, throughout the whole video I was agreeing with everything she said.
Humble correction: In Nguni culture (Zulu, Xhosa, Ndebele, and Swati), we say, Thokoza! Or Camagu! Meaning we give praise to the ancestors, the owners of the wisdom and the knowledge. On my own, i am just a Catholic-raised and terrorised woman whose crucible was more Latin, Italian and English. I cannot thank my ancestors enough for finding me.
Been doing and still doing research on the origins of Christianity and Africa…I left the religion recently for so many reasons because of most of what she is saying. People are afraid to do research and people are still afraid to be wrong.
I AM almost in tears to see all of the viewers in the comments who have been through what I have been through as one who had come to terms that the christian jezuzy stuff was not working for me!!! Decided to let it go and live my Most beautifull rich and illustrious indigenous Afrakhan ancestral culture and spirituality. The more I began to search for my Afrakhan cultural and spiritual ancestry heritage and birthrights within me and me within it!!! I found Peace I found home and i found me!!! Which led me to a truly heart warming beautifull relationship with The DIVINE. ASE’🖤❤️💛💚👑✨🙏🏾✨
I carry geniuses, it is the ancestors in me. On my own, I am the naive, Soweto-raised, western-educated, PhD holder who has been fed disinformation and misinformation like all other Afrikans. I battle cognitive dissonance like all my people.
Absolutely love uMa Khanyile. As a holder of a Masters Theological degree, I truly love how uDr Khanyile is trying to stretch the mind of Africans. The religion of Christianity in Africa is certainly Eurocentric & even the concept of Easter is problematic. We need to decolonize Education & Culture & love ourselves as Africans. Siyabonga Ma.
Is the room for consideration of the fact that Christianity was in Africa (Ethiopian Orthodox) before it existed in Europe. Then again, one can argue is the Christianity that is predominant is the one introduced by Europeans
We need woke academicians. We need woke PhD holders; we need woke Profs. But most of all, we need woke students. Some people's unconscious incompetence (they do not know that they do not know) is so deep that the truth makes them attack the truth bearer. They confront the truth with such ferocious anger, that it flies above their heads.
We need more sisters and brothers like her to talk more about the Africa Spirituality so as to reeducate us on it. We did lose many of our beliefs due to colonization. Thank God for social media we are getting better and more informed about the situation. We know today that the earlier colonizers were killers and liars. They distorted the narrative to potray their thoughts and actions. Our Tongues may differ across Africa but the Spirituality across the continent is the same. The Europeans copied and whitewashed our beliefs to be theirs. Thank God for the new awakening.
@@angelscakes4678 hi, you typed "thank God..." what god are you referring to? Because I am assuming you support the Dr.' Perspective. You should've said "thank the ancestors"
@@Charl__tee I think you are missing the point. God is the creator, I do not recall Dr Khanyisile saying there is no God. If God does not exist, who created all the things you are seeing today? Christianity was imposed on people and it's a fact you cannot deny. Respecting other people's belief is a way to go, we cannot always find something negative to say about other people's belief. Respect all the way.
I want to share this video with everyone I know. As a Canadian born Jamaican, I struggle to know myself. My "Jamaican" culture is a mix of African slavery and British colonization. Jamaica’s national dish (ackee and salt fish) comes from West Africa (ackee) and Britain (salted cod). I struggle to connect with my family because I am awake and question everything about our culture. Jamaicans, especially my family are so lost in Christianity they don’t understand what I see and know. They need something to believe in without understanding their power is within. I needed the reminder that spirituality comes from within not a "high priestess" or other head. Thank you for sharing this!
How will your spirit transition from here to heaven without the power of holy spirit. Logical God is the one i will meet not a familiar spirit. I want to know why does it matter of jesus was black or white will that change my fate. Will i not have to accept my fate ? If i decide to reject God follow after another spirit. If I decide not to accept jc as my savior will learning my heritage, which exempt me from God wrath. I am .... Great i Am .... we our in trouble. Thank God for who he is because he knew sent us our lord savior. Just asking question nothing more because I have accepted, will not follow a stranger voice.
@@tee6690 Well as far as I know Christianity was forced to us. Those who rejected it were killed so that whoever rejects it would be scared that they will also be killed. Ask yourself why other reading material were not allowed but only the bible was consented. You wouldn't read anything unless you will be punished badly. The gods we know didn't make any threats to people but the white god is so full of threats. Promises to burn
I agree. My mom is very religious - constantly saying things like “God is good” and “The Bible says”. My dad is a decon at the church we go to here in Australia. This year alone, I tried to get rid of everything that has had to with Christianity. I even went so far as to take a small biblical book I received as a gift for joining the church my family and I joined after moving to Australia two years ago and leave it there without anyone in my family noticing. Sadly, one of the musicians there found it and asked if it was mine, now it’s in our house again. Except this time, it now belongs to my holier-than-thou mom. What makes me ashamed of my family is that they hate everything about colonization, except Christianity - which came through colonization. They learned about colonization and slavery in school, but I don’t think they ever learned about the level of damage colonization did to our cultures and minds. And for my mom, she became religious because of all the trauma and abuse she experienced, which I’m sure also came with colonization. She thought that by being religious, God would somehow heal her pain…So I think she’s still traumatized. And I agree with Mama Khanyisile here - that religion is actually a lot like drugs which every affects the way you judge people. And that’s exactly what’s happened to my mom: she is on a drug because of her trauma trying to heal, and that drug is religion. Love Mama Khanyisile’s spirit. ❤️❤️👍👍
Having given my wife breakfast in bed, we listened to this beautiful Cistren educate many who took the time to listen & overstand what she had to teach them. She was excellent & validated much of what I learnt through my ALK'EBULAN = Afeikan SPIRITUALITY. I ave subscribed & will continually share U'r contents. ÀSÈ..MA'AT HOTEP.
I identify with all that this SeeStar says. I too always asked questions a lot in church got me into trouble a lot, eventually I left & yes it was like going through a messy divorce took 2yrs before I stopped saying I was 7 day Adventist & 3yrs to stop saying I was christian. The brainwashing was very deep & embracing African Spirituality is what helped me remain liberated. I have a much stronger & closer relationship with my Ancestors & my guides they help me a lot. I am aware of their presence every waking hour.
This is one of the most profound conversations I’ve ever heard in my life. This video should absolutely trend. A lot of us need such information so that we know where you come from and we know where we are going.
Here in Tobago everything the mzungu gave us thru slavery was bad for us. Everything. But many of us still hold on to their religion and is prepared to die defending it.
It is not just Tobago. It is both the diaspora and the continent herself. It is almost like we have been bewitched. We even kill each other about Islam or Christianity. Now we have a faction that is breeching Christianity and Judaism. My analysis has always come to the same conclusion = decolonisation or the need for a cultural revolution. Europe went through it in Rennaissance, India has had one, China, Malysia, America, Japan.... But no, we want to berate our spirituality, culture, and languages, and hope to rise.
@@SPICEMAN-473 I wish all my people can come to that kairos moment. We are largely initiated into religion without our permission. I mean I was born into a Catholic family, thus baptised as a baby, names after Catholic Italian people, encouraged to respect Latin, etc. But that was my parents! Not me! Through my journey in life, I had to develop into me.... I ditched my colonial religious names, and I gave myself the name, Khanyisile. A past perfect tense meaning, the one who has lighted, or brought light. It fits in with my ancestral gift of knowledge.
Really enjoying this. I practiced Christianity for many years until God provided me with an awakening. I now pay attention to the synchronicities that exist. God will always make Himself and His message clear to those whose spirits are awake. I’ve learned that there are many truths in many spiritual practices and it’s ok for me to adopt what resonates with my journey.
Indeed the doc is right...the kingdom of God is within you....a church/religion is like a fish in a pond thinking that's life not knowing there is a fish In the ocean
I am a mix of Jamaican and American Indian, and have been spiritual ever since my awakening two years ago (🍄🟫). The divine is within all of us, it’s no separate person. Praying to the divine is praying to your higher self. I agree with most of what you said, except for the part about race. There are not three races, there is only one, and that’s the human race. Melanated skin and coily/curly hair is suited more for a hot and sunny environment, lighter skin and less curly or straight hair is suited more for a cooler cloudy environment. We’re all still human. The sooner we stop dividing ourselves and realize that we’re all the same, the sooner we can become united and strong like we’re suppose to be. Divide and conquer is a strategy of the colonizers.
I truly admire listening to this sister speak; her words are filled with knowledge, wisdom, and clarity. Afrocentric thought and African spiritual oneness is the key to true liberation for those of us of African heritage. We must recognize that we are both the source and the solution to our challenges. Dr. Khanyisike Tshabalala is truly inspirational, and I am eager to hear more from her. 💛👑🌍✊🏾

On my own, i am just a Catholic-raised and terrorised woman whose crucible was more Latin, Italian and English. I cannot thank my ancestors enough for finding me.
I am luo from Kenya.... I really liked that part of us not being a tribe...but a state, a nation.... Wow
I m spiritually awakened and humble about it
Religion. The greatest tool ever used on poor humans psyche.
First time watching Dr. Khanyisile Tshabalala but am really impressed by her wisdom and Afro-centrism. Much love and respect🥁🪘👏🏾.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Dr. Khanyisile Tshabalala is truly inspiring.
Been doing and still doing research on the origins of Christianity and Africa…I left the religion recently for so many reasons because of most of what she is saying. People are afraid to do research and people are still afraid to be wrong.
There's an article that might aid your research entitled: "Here's What No One Told You About Africa's Ancient Christian History" by Laura M. Quainoo
Oh my goodness, how can i like this video a thousand times? Somebody show me...🙏🏿
Thank you so much for your enthusiasm! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Camagu!
I AM almost in tears to see all of the viewers in the comments who have been through what I have been through as one who had come to terms that the christian jezuzy stuff was not working for me!!! Decided to let it go and live my Most beautifull rich and illustrious indigenous Afrakhan ancestral culture and spirituality. The more I began to search for my Afrakhan cultural and spiritual ancestry heritage and birthrights within me and me within it!!! I found Peace I found home and i found me!!! Which led me to a truly heart warming beautifull relationship with The DIVINE. ASE’🖤❤️💛💚👑✨🙏🏾✨
Same here. I found peace, I found myself, I found my true history, my heritage, my purpose. Let's keep decolonisng and finding ourselves!

Same here. I am at peace.

This woman is a GENIUS!!!
I carry geniuses, it is the ancestors in me. On my own, I am the naive, Soweto-raised, western-educated, PhD holder who has been fed disinformation and misinformation like all other Afrikans. I battle cognitive dissonance like all my people.
Thank you for this great content. We must proudly go back to true Africanity.
52 seconds in, and I just got my whole life 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
"You can't change the system that been put into place thousands of years without demonizing it" 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I got my life back, too! Thank you so much, Doc. I love you so, so much!
Absolutely love uMa Khanyile.
As a holder of a Masters Theological degree, I truly love how uDr Khanyile is trying to stretch the mind of Africans. The religion of Christianity in Africa is certainly Eurocentric & even the concept of Easter is problematic. We need to decolonize Education & Culture & love ourselves as Africans. Siyabonga Ma.
Is the room for consideration of the fact that Christianity was in Africa (Ethiopian Orthodox) before it existed in Europe. Then again, one can argue is the Christianity that is predominant is the one introduced by Europeans
Camagu! Thokoza!
Camagu! Thokoza!
We need woke academicians. We need woke PhD holders; we need woke Profs. But most of all, we need woke students. Some people's unconscious incompetence (they do not know that they do not know) is so deep that the truth makes them attack the truth bearer. They confront the truth with such ferocious anger, that it flies above their heads.
This is words from above ashered by the ancestors through the mouth of Dr Tshabalala.
Can we all see what is going on. We as Africans are seeking truth, and identity for those who know nothing about their identity.❤
Imagine
We need more sisters and brothers like her to talk more about the Africa Spirituality so as to reeducate us on it. We did lose many of our beliefs due to colonization. Thank God for social media we are getting better and more informed about the situation. We know today that the earlier colonizers were killers and liars. They distorted the narrative to potray their thoughts and actions. Our Tongues may differ across Africa but the Spirituality across the continent is the same. The Europeans copied and whitewashed our beliefs to be theirs.
Thank God for the new awakening.
@@angelscakes4678 hi, you typed "thank God..." what god are you referring to? Because I am assuming you support the Dr.' Perspective.
You should've said "thank the ancestors"
@Charl__tee God is the creator of ancestors. No answer without God. It's a sin to play God.
@@Charl__tee I think you are missing the point. God is the creator, I do not recall Dr Khanyisile saying there is no God. If God does not exist, who created all the things you are seeing today? Christianity was imposed on people and it's a fact you cannot deny. Respecting other people's belief is a way to go, we cannot always find something negative to say about other people's belief. Respect all the way.
We really appreciate you mama. Imfundiso zakho helps us to find ourselves as we learning who we really are as African children. Thokoza
I want to share this video with everyone I know. As a Canadian born Jamaican, I struggle to know myself. My "Jamaican" culture is a mix of African slavery and British colonization. Jamaica’s national dish (ackee and salt fish) comes from West Africa (ackee) and Britain (salted cod). I struggle to connect with my family because I am awake and question everything about our culture. Jamaicans, especially my family are so lost in Christianity they don’t understand what I see and know. They need something to believe in without understanding their power is within. I needed the reminder that spirituality comes from within not a "high priestess" or other head. Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you for sharing your personal journey. It's important to reflect on our roots and beliefs to find our true selves.
Jamaicans for starters many are a blend of West & East African take a closer look hat Uganda & Kenya. Do you ancestry DNA
How will your spirit transition from here to heaven without the power of holy spirit. Logical God is the one i will meet not a familiar spirit. I want to know why does it matter of jesus was black or white will that change my fate. Will i not have to accept my fate ? If i decide to reject God follow after another spirit. If I decide not to accept jc as my savior will learning my heritage, which exempt me from God wrath. I am .... Great i Am .... we our in trouble. Thank God for who he is because he knew sent us our lord savior. Just asking question nothing more because I have accepted, will not follow a stranger voice.
@@tee6690 Well as far as I know Christianity was forced to us. Those who rejected it were killed so that whoever rejects it would be scared that they will also be killed. Ask yourself why other reading material were not allowed but only the bible was consented. You wouldn't read anything unless you will be punished badly.
The gods we know didn't make any threats to people but the white god is so full of threats. Promises to burn
I agree. My mom is very religious - constantly saying things like “God is good” and “The Bible says”. My dad is a decon at the church we go to here in Australia. This year alone, I tried to get rid of everything that has had to with Christianity. I even went so far as to take a small biblical book I received as a gift for joining the church my family and I joined after moving to Australia two years ago and leave it there without anyone in my family noticing. Sadly, one of the musicians there found it and asked if it was mine, now it’s in our house again. Except this time, it now belongs to my holier-than-thou mom. What makes me ashamed of my family is that they hate everything about colonization, except Christianity - which came through colonization. They learned about colonization and slavery in school, but I don’t think they ever learned about the level of damage colonization did to our cultures and minds. And for my mom, she became religious because of all the trauma and abuse she experienced, which I’m sure also came with colonization. She thought that by being religious, God would somehow heal her pain…So I think she’s still traumatized. And I agree with Mama Khanyisile here - that religion is actually a lot like drugs which every affects the way you judge people. And that’s exactly what’s happened to my mom: she is on a drug because of her trauma trying to heal, and that drug is religion. Love Mama Khanyisile’s spirit. ❤️❤️👍👍
Thank you Mama 🙏🏼
Having given my wife breakfast in bed, we listened to this beautiful Cistren educate many who took the time to listen &
overstand what she had to teach them. She was excellent & validated much of what I learnt through my ALK'EBULAN = Afeikan SPIRITUALITY. I ave subscribed & will continually share U'r contents. ÀSÈ..MA'AT HOTEP.
Dr. Khanyisile 🔥🔥 deconstructing colonial concepts and ideas flawlessly.
Camagu! Thokoza!
BEAUTIFUL.
Deconstructing from Christianity has been the hardest for me!! But I’m getting there!
I identify with all that this SeeStar says. I too always asked questions a lot in church got me into trouble a lot, eventually I left & yes it was like going through a messy divorce took 2yrs before I stopped saying I was 7 day Adventist & 3yrs to stop saying I was christian. The brainwashing was very deep & embracing African Spirituality is what helped me remain liberated. I have a much stronger & closer relationship with my Ancestors & my guides they help me a lot. I am aware of their presence every waking hour.
Me too. Stay strong
This is one of the most profound conversations I’ve ever heard in my life. This video should absolutely trend. A lot of us need such information so that we know where you come from and we know where we are going.
Camagu! May it be so! May Afrikan ancestors keep the conversation alive
Ma’am you are 🔥 Spirituality is beyond the understanding of Abrahamic religions.
Here in Tobago everything the mzungu gave us thru slavery was bad for us. Everything. But many of us still hold on to their religion and is prepared to die defending it.
GRENADA 🇬🇩 HERE…I NEVER TRUSTED ANYTHING FROM THESE PEOPLE…I LEFT RELIGION YEARS AGO AND EMBRACED SPIRITUALITY
It is not just Tobago. It is both the diaspora and the continent herself. It is almost like we have been bewitched. We even kill each other about Islam or Christianity. Now we have a faction that is breeching Christianity and Judaism. My analysis has always come to the same conclusion = decolonisation or the need for a cultural revolution. Europe went through it in Rennaissance, India has had one, China, Malysia, America, Japan.... But no, we want to berate our spirituality, culture, and languages, and hope to rise.
@@SPICEMAN-473 I wish all my people can come to that kairos moment. We are largely initiated into religion without our permission. I mean I was born into a Catholic family, thus baptised as a baby, names after Catholic Italian people, encouraged to respect Latin, etc. But that was my parents! Not me! Through my journey in life, I had to develop into me.... I ditched my colonial religious names, and I gave myself the name, Khanyisile. A past perfect tense meaning, the one who has lighted, or brought light. It fits in with my ancestral gift of knowledge.
It’s no different here in the USA. The majority of Black Americans are the same way. But alot of us are starting to wake up.
But Africans had slavery they had Christianity
In Kikuyu we have 'Nyuba ni mutumia'
Amazing, Jambo ....

love the channel, love what its doing, love from tz my brothers, africa is coming back to us, may we uphold our ancestors and the ways we lost. LOVE
And just like that a girl found her tribe. And everything I have always subconsciously known got affirmed. Thank You❤
Really enjoying this. I practiced Christianity for many years until God provided me with an awakening. I now pay attention to the synchronicities that exist. God will always make Himself and His message clear to those whose spirits are awake. I’ve learned that there are many truths in many spiritual practices and it’s ok for me to adopt what resonates with my journey.
Stop saying ‘him’ and stop talking as if ‘god’ is some separate person. Spirit (the creator) is within all of us and doesn’t have a gender.
Mama, Re a leboga for the absolute truth you share ❤❤❤. Indeed, social media is the coloniser's downfall.
Indeed the doc is right...the kingdom of God is within you....a church/religion is like a fish in a pond thinking that's life not knowing there is a fish In the ocean
Mama Litchfield-Tshabalala is the center of the house
Camagu! My ancestors are! The Afrikan ancestors I carry are! Not me.
@@DrKhanyiLitchfieldTshabalala as young black child I am learning a lot from watching your videos
Oh yes...I had to go into solitude to release me completely from the Christianity mindset. Definitely born again💫💚
Fire fire fire 🔥 Thank you Dr for speaking truth the power! Thank you for speaking power to truth❤
Beautiful content shared. I am inspired. I wish the questions from the interviewer will be printed on the screen too.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Sometimes you just feel truth. Listening with our hearts, we can hear her words which feel so clear & truthful.

So happy this phenomenal woman is finally here
The Afrikan ancestors in me are phenomenal! I am just ordinary
My sister, you are special and the Queen of education to help your people to understand reality to the truth ❤❤only love for truth ❤️ 💖 💗 💕 ❤😢🎉🎉
I am a mix of Jamaican and American Indian, and have been spiritual ever since my awakening two years ago (🍄🟫). The divine is within all of us, it’s no separate person. Praying to the divine is praying to your higher self.
I agree with most of what you said, except for the part about race. There are not three races, there is only one, and that’s the human race. Melanated skin and coily/curly hair is suited more for a hot and sunny environment, lighter skin and less curly or straight hair is suited more for a cooler cloudy environment. We’re all still human. The sooner we stop dividing ourselves and realize that we’re all the same, the sooner we can become united and strong like we’re suppose to be. Divide and conquer is a strategy of the colonizers.
Please let's us know the teachers of Africa spirituality
She is an absolute genius ❤
This is really beautiful. Every time I listen to her there's just so much knowledge.
I truly admire listening to this sister speak; her words are filled with knowledge, wisdom, and clarity. Afrocentric thought and African spiritual oneness is the key to true liberation for those of us of African heritage. We must recognize that we are both the source and the solution to our challenges. Dr. Khanyisike Tshabalala is truly inspirational, and I am eager to hear more from her. 💛👑🌍✊🏾
I left been a Christian many years ago,my brother and sisters were shocked but l remain who I am till date even my woman left because of that
but why may be you expressed yourself wrongly
@@ngeewa8029 she's Christian and wanted to remain Christian
