Adventist, Eh? Thandazani Mhlanga, generous spirituality in a constrained religious environment.
Adventist Voices by Spectrum: The Journal of the Adventist ForumShow Notes
Thandazani Mhlanga is a pastor in the British Columbia Conference, and also serves as a hospital chaplain. Through his passion for humanity he notices how Canadian society has mastered the art of virtue & moral signaling. This mismatch of saying the right thing but not doing the right action shows that the church may not be ready to embrace all people. Thandazani reflects on Jesus’ sermon on the mount, noting that Christ’s words were, “blessed are the peacemakers,” not “blessed are the peace talkers.” In his media channels, Never Black and White and Inspired Passions, Thandazani aims to show the beauty of truly seeing people.
