Apostolic Faith Missions Pastor Kudakwashe Chiwashira is a man on a mission.<\/p>\n
Apart from teaching the word, I also dream of inspiring and motivating people, said the 31-year-old clergyman.<\/p>\n
When not on the podium delivering sermons, the pastor spends much of his time writing books.<\/p>\n
With four books already under his belt, Pastor Chiwashira recently released his fifth and arguably most anticipated offering, which is titled Eight People who Always Succeed.<\/p>\n
His other books are titled Where is My Money, Its All in You, The Essence of Obedience The Blessing Factor, 67 Plus One and I Can: I Will and I Will.<\/p>\n
All his books were inspired by his life experiences.<\/p>\n
First and foremost, literature is not a hobby or something I do on the side, it is a calling of sorts, said Pastor Chiwashira.<\/p>\n
I have always been passionate about literature, whether its reading, writing or the endless pursuit of attaining knowledge.<\/p>\n
My father is an avid reader and had a well-stocked library in the house. Later in life, my passion for literature manifested and I decided to author my first book, which took me about three years to write.<\/p>\n
On my books, my personal favourite is Where is My Money, Its All in You. This is a financial empowerment book and my very first release.<\/p>\n
67 Plus One is a tribute to my father and a collection of 67 inspirational quotes. The last quote was my fathers, taken from what he would tell my siblings and l when we were younger.<\/p>\n
That book was published in 2018 when he turned 68 years old, he said.<\/p>\n
Pastor Chiwashira said Eight People Who Always Succeed has a special place in his heart as it was largely influenced by his own personal drive to succeed.<\/p>\n
We are always asking what we need to do to succeed. This book tries to explore this and many other questions we might have.<\/p>\n
In the book, Pastor Chiwashira addresses ethics, the moral codes and sacrifices we make in our quest to achieve our goals.<\/p>\n
He uses a few examples of people who have gone through certain routes.<\/p>\n
The book was launched a fortnight ago and is already on the shelves of selected bookshops in the capital.<\/p>\n
The last born in a family of four, Pastor Chiwashira was born on August 29, 1988.<\/p>\n
He is a pastor with the Apostolic Faith Mission and is based at Aspindale Park, Mufakose.<\/p>\n
He says he draws inspiration from American tele-evangelist TD Jakes.<\/p>\n
Born and bred in Mufakose, Pastor Chiwashira is a holder of a Diploma in Theology, which he attained at the Living Waters Theological Seminary in Tynwald, Harare.<\/p>\n
He is also a trained counsellor in prison ministry, HIV and Aids.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
