Synopsis

My name is Nozibele Mayaba, and I am HIV-positive.
I am a devout Christian who did everything by the book: worked hard, got good marks, found a steady job and helped to make life better for my family. In our neighbourhood, I was the girl other parents pointed to as a role model. Until a few months before my diagnosis at age 22, I was a virgin.
Women like me don't get HIV. But then I did.
It took me years to accept my new reality. Speaking out freed meand completely changed my life. Being HIV-positive wasn't my first challenge and it won't be my last, but it has been the hardest. It also taught me an important lesson: behind every statistic is a person with a name, a family, a story. This is my story.
My name is Nozibele Mayaba, I am HIV-positive, and I am still positively me.
An HIV-positive diagnosis may no longer be a death sentence, but it still changes everything. In this frank, vulnerable memoir, as told to acclaimed writer Sue Nyathi, activist and TV host Nozibele Mayaba talks about finding purpose when you think your life has come to an end.

  • Sacred not Sinful - A New Christian Sexual Ethic - cover

    Sacred not Sinful - A New...

    This may be the first modern book on Christian sexual ethics to go beyond “married = moral” and “love who you love”! 
    If you’re looking for another book on the sinfulness of sex outside of marriage or the need to accept everybody’s sexual preferences, this isn’t it. 
    A lifeless and unbiblical “ethic” rooted in gnostic, platonic, and enlightenment thinking has sapped the spiritual vitality of the sexual experience for millions of Christians who do not know how to have a healthy relationship with the body and its natural desires. 
    Paying lip-service to ethics with the assumption that married = moral, there is little thought given to how the call to love God with all one’s heart, soul, mind, and strength might extend beyond the marriage ceremony and into the bedroom. 
    Humbly deconstructing his own experience, Jenson exposes the problematic teachings of purity culture that permeate modern society, and then uncovers a path to sexual flourishing for all humans regardless of sex, gender, or relationship status. 
    His clear love of the scripture and deep persistent faith shine through intensive research and personal wrestling through what the bible says about polyamory, homosexuality, premarital sex, gender identity, pornography, and the intimate connection between sex and spirituality in the Christian life. 
    Sacred not Sinful delivers an earnest and searing wake-up call to move beyond the moral impotence of sexual standards that ensnare the church and culture in a web of shame, confusion, and oppression. 
    Confident that God has called us to liberate the oppressed, to bring light to the darkness, Christians must overcome their fear and learn what it takes to become a landmark of sexual integrity, freedom, and skill in the midst of a confused culture. 
    Are you ready to break the silent chains of ignorance that keep millions of people from the intimacy and ecstacy of God’s design for sexual wholeness?
