Lukho Mkwedi Phuthi, in the Word Fest with Dr. Julius Mengot Mbu, discusses "The 11th hour" using the example from John 11:1-44 where Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead. The "11th hour" symbolizes a critical moment, like extra time in soccer, when God can show up unexpectedly to deliver and do miracles. Dr. Mbu encourages listeners to remain hopeful and trust God even at the last moment, whether waiting for a job, a promotion, exam results, or breakthroughs in life, affirming that God’s timing is perfect and He can act powerfully even when it seems late.

Lukho Mkwedi Phuthi and Pastor Bongani Moyo discuss managing finances in blended families, emphasizing the importance of clear roles and boundaries. In blended families, financial imbalances and conflicts often arise, so it's crucial to set transparent budgets and financial priorities together. Fathers or stepfathers should avoid trying to overly please stepchildren and instead focus on fulfilling their role as a parent with consistency and fairness. Open communication about spending habits, joint and separate accounts, and long-term planning for education, housing, and emergencies are key. Professional advice, prenuptial agreements, and financial plans help protect all family members and build harmony. Heart to Heart

Lukho Mkwedi Phuthi and Pastor Bongani Moyo discuss Positioning Yourself based on Luke 6:6-11, where Jesus heals a man with a withered hand on the Sabbath. The teaching emphasizes that when one is in a position of privilege or comfort, they may not truly understand the plight of those in need ("the one who is already down, doesn't go down, instead goes up"). To receive one's miracle, one must intentionally position oneself—be consistent, humble, and obedient, willing to receive instruction without offense. Jesus’s action shows the importance of doing good and obeying God’s will even when it challenges societal norms or personal comfort. The passage encourages believers to stretch out their faith and receive healing, aligning with God's purpose and timing Luke 6:6-11. Heart to Heart

Sibongile Mofokeng wraps up the show with Coach and Pastor Lunga Botha, and they are looking at Renewing the Mind. Renewing the Mind” is about the inner transformation that happens when believers allow God’s truth to reshape their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Drawing from Romans 12:2, it emphasizes that real change begins in the mind — not by conforming to the world’s patterns, but by aligning our thinking with scripture and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. The topic explores both spiritual and psychological dimensions:

Spiritually: replacing lies with biblical truth, relying on the Holy Spirit, and practicing daily renewal through prayer, scripture, and worship.

Psychologically: understanding how thought patterns influence emotions and actions, and learning practical tools to break old cycles and form healthier habits.

Ultimately, it teaches that renewing the mind is a daily process of transformation that brings peace, resilience, and freedom, even in difficult circumstances. Heart to Heart

Sibongile Mofokeng and Ambassador Prudence Mocumi discuss why women leaders and believers should be part of the G20, especially from a Kingdom perspective. Ambassador Prudence highlights the idea of a "Kingdom G20," which frames the global G20 economic summit through the lens of Christian marketplace calling. Since the G20 addresses major economies and global issues like trade, sustainable development, health, agriculture, energy, climate, and anti-corruption, the Kingdom G20 encourages believers to actively engage in influencing and improving economies aligned with Kingdom values such as integrity, stewardship, and service. The Kingdom business approach emphasizes that Christians are called to occupy and impact the marketplace until Jesus returns, using business as a ministry to bless communities and promote economic justice. Women leaders play a vital role in this, bringing Kingdom principles into leadership and economic development. This expansion of the G20 agenda aligns well with Kingdom goals of sustainable growth and ethical influence in global affairs. Heart to Heart

Sibongile Mofokeng returns to the studio alongside with Mr Michael Mathe Grant Administrator about Social Grant Reviews. SASSA would like to categorically state that there has been no suspension of social grants as stated but during the review process, grants get delayed momentarily until a beneficiary has successfully completed the review process. This review is not a punitive measure to deliberately exclude any deserving beneficiary, but it is intended to ensure continued eligibility and prevent misuse of public funds. Heart to Heart

Sibongile Mofokeng and Adv. Rufus Malatji discusses the critical topic of Marriage Preparation, emphasizing that while many couples focus on wedding plans, they often neglect preparing for the marriage itself. Effective preparation involves attending pre-marital counseling where couples reflect on essential questions: "Why do we get married?", "What does marriage entail?", "Who created marriage?", and "What should we do once we desire to be married?". In South Africa, pre-marital counseling is highly recommended and often required by churches to build a strong foundation for marriage. These sessions cover relationship vision, communication, roles, conflict resolution, intimacy, and boundary setting. Proper preparation strengthens couples' ability to navigate challenges and fosters lasting, healthy marriages. Heart to Heart

Sibongile Mofokeng, Rev Ernest Kgwadi, and Rev Archibold Malungwane discuss common challenges in marriages, focusing in part on issues related to in-laws. They explain that in-laws, if not properly managed through clear boundaries, can negatively affect the couple’s foundation, likened to roots cracking a garden’s soil. Couples are encouraged to protect their intimacy and privacy by not oversharing with extended family. More broadly, common marital challenges in South Africa include financial stress, infidelity, communication breakdown, cultural and religious differences, domestic violence, substance abuse, and lack of intimacy. Healing and strong marriages can emerge when couples address root causes together with forgiveness and mutual commitment.​ Heart to Heart
