Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Life:Created - Prince Matladi
Q: So how did you get from University in Pretoria to Christianity? What transpired in your life?
After getting saved, my brother guided me through my spiritual journey. I was initially resistant to letting go of my sinful habits but eventually began to feel a compelling change in my life after reading the Bible.
Life:Unburdened - Tumi Matladi
Q: What would you say to someone who is carrying that burden themselves?
I would say, if you want peace, don't prolong. Don't hold it in your heart and carry this burden, because if you're carrying it, you're missing out on the real freedom.
Life:Identified - Molly Louw
Q: What would you say to them to push them in the right direction?
We sometimes waste so much time on unnecessary things; if I knew about it with my very first Sinner's Prayer in 2008, what a healthy, happy, blessed life I would have had.
Life:Prevailed - Lloyd Hermans
Q: How did your family dynamics change after your parents' divorce?
Lloyd explains that he initially stayed with his mother but eventually moved in with his father and stepmother, which turned out to be a turbulent phase due to conflicts with his stepmother.
Life:Prevailed - Lloyd Hermans
Q: Can you share with us your car accident when you were young?
Lloyd recounts that he was six years old when he was hit by a car while crossing the road, leading to a coma and a mistaken report of his death.
