From Day Three

This week on the From Day Three Podcast, Emmanuel sits down with Munyaradzi—a fellow dad he met on the school playground—for a powerful and deeply personal conversation.Munya shares his story of growing up in Zimbabwe, navigating his parents’ separation as a child, and encountering Jesus at just 9 years old through the impact of Scripture Union. From being sent to boarding school to wrestling with feelings of rejection and deep pain, he opens up about the moments that shaped him.In one life-changing encounter, Munya describes seeing a vision of the cross and hearing Jesus speak over him: “You are wanted, useful, and enough.”He also shares the early vision for City on a Hill—a ministry he’s building with a heart to equip people in discipleship—and his belief that revival is coming. Not centred on one person, but through the Church as a whole, as people return to the basics: reading the Word and prayer.This is a conversation about identity, healing, calling, and the quiet work of God preparing hearts for what’s to come.Munya’s Contacts:LinkedIn - Munyaradzi Fungai Simpson Munyaradzi Instagram - @mufusin
