Local writer Sydwell Mthombeni (34) launched his latest motivational book, titled “The Renewed Life”, on Thursday, 8 December. Within its pages, Mthombeni delves into the vital importance of embracing a renewed life, offering a roadmap for readers to traverse the journey towards total renewal.
The book follows Mthombeni’s fourth book, “Radical Writing”, which was also published earlier this year.
His work transcends from being just a book to serving as a call to action for personal transformation. Motivated by a perceived gap in character development within local communities, he aims to fill that void. “I discovered that the renewal of our minds is an everyday journey that demands intentional effort to become better versions of ourselves. While this book is suitable for everyone, it focuses on youths and Christians seeking positive change in their lives,” he said.
Mthombeni said the book provided practical steps for individuals in various life stages, such as students, couples, and professionals, but it also encouraged businesspeople to plan effectively for the growth of their enterprises.
“In this book, I point out principles such as integrity, achieving realistic goals, and having an impactful life within our communities. It is a means to help people see that God has a plan for us all, and we need to understand his will to live with purpose. The book also guides students to value learning for personal growth rather than just to achieve results. Furthermore, the book addresses the importance of developing problem-solving skills in family and relationship affairs. ‘The Renewed Life’ is not just a book; it’s a comprehensive guide aiming to inspire positive change and growth across diverse aspects of life,” he said.
