“I’ve never enjoyed going to church. I don’t go to church because I despise getting out of bed in the morning. My siblings have teased me about it since I was a child. [While] in church, I said to my mother, ‘Mum, I want to eat bread and eggs.’ It’s too early for me, and I’ve never enjoyed church in my life, and I still don’t.

“My problem was that I never understood what they were teaching, and this was the source of my hunger as I grew older.

“I knew who God was, but I couldn’t understand the sermons and teachings I was hearing.”
