How long since being saved: I have been saved since December 2005.

Tell us about your moment of conviction: I was back and forth going to church, just visiting really, but one day I was playing football and got into an argument with two guys. The argument went sour and one of the guys had a knife, which I did not know. Myself and the other guy were about to face off. He was coming towards me and I was going towards him. The other guy who got the knife ran towards me and stabbed after me. The knife cut off a piece of my skin from the forehead; and it was there and then that I decided that I was going to start walking with God, because I could have been killed that day.

Most challenging moment since being saved: My most challenging moment is when I have to prepare programmes. I am always under pressure when doing so. At the end of it though, it always comes off good, because I always follow the instructions well. When one is doing something for the Lord, one should always invite the Lord to be a part of it.

Most miraculous moment since being saved: Every day for me is a miracle. The fact that I have life is enough to give God thanks for; and that is basically a miracle. Many persons go to their bed at nights and they don't wake up in the morning, so when you find yourself getting out of your bed, that's a miracle in your life. The things that we face on a daily basis and I find that I am not getting myself into trouble and so forth, and temptations are coming my way and I am able to get over them, are great miracles in my life everyday.

Message Christians: The Christian pathway is not an easy one. You are going to face distractions, you are going to face struggles, but be committed in your heart that you are going to follow Jesus all the way. You are going to give Jesus all your best and you are going to give Him all. In giving Jesus your all, when you walk, you are not going to hold Jesus' hands, you are going to allow Him to hold your hands and lead you along the pathway.

Message non-Christians: The Christian life is the best way. There is no better life than a Christian life. The Christian life teaches honesty, good morals and it teaches you to be the best person, in that you are better able to differentiate between right and wrong. When you are living a pure clean life, you have a lot of burden lifted from you. Living an honest life, a pure life, a dignified life, a respectful life and a God-fearing life is what will happen when you surrender your life to the Lord.

Favourite bible scripture: John 3: 14-17
