On this episode of Five Minutes in Church History, it's a real privilege for me to have a special

guest who's come all the way from Zambia to meet with us here in the studio.

I'm sitting with Dr. Conrad Embewey.

He's the founding chancellor and the director of advancement of the African Christian University

in Zambia.

Now, he's also known as Shikulu and Taswila, and I would love it, Dr. Embewey, if you

would just take a moment to let us know about this other name that you are known as.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Well, the name simply means grandfather of Taswila in an African context.

When you marry, people start referring to you as husband of so-and-so.

When you have your first child, they start referring to you as father of so-and-so.

And then when you have your first grandchild, you now start being called grandfather of so-and-so

within the wider community.

So I'm grandfather of Taswila and African phrases Shikulu, Taswila.

So if you would like to email Dr. Embewey, if you call him Shikulu and Taswila, he will

certainly answer that email and you'll get right through well.

You're also known as the Spurgeon of Africa.

And I bless you.

And I know that that's not something you call yourself, so let's establish that first.

But as you think about Spurgeon and his influence, just let's talk about that for a little

bit.
