Who Was I in the Beginning?

Who Was I in the Beginning? A powerful memoir that explores identity, resilience, faith, and self-discovery through the lens of personal experience. The book follows Lebohang Ndaba’s journey from a childhood marked by poverty, parental abandonment, family conflict, and emotional hardship to a place of healing, forgiveness, and purpose.

Set against the backdrop of Gauteng, the memoir presents an honest reflection on the realities of survival, loss, and perseverance.

Through biblical reflections and life lessons, Lebohang demonstrates how suffering can become a pathway to strength, healing, and spiritual growth.
