Lungiswa Mpambani
Director of CBC Johannesburg
Lungiswa Mpambani graduated from Charis Bible College in 2017 after serving in the banking sector for over 10 years. Inspired by a deep desire to delve into the Word of God, she resigned from her banking career in 2014 to pursue this calling.
Beginning her journey at Charis Bible College in Heidelberg, Western Cape, Lungiswa’s relationship with God took on a profound and distinctive expression. Transformed by the love of God encountered through His Word, she was driven by a newfound passion to share this love with others.
In 2019, Lungiswa began volunteering with Charis, working tirelessly to facilitate others’ experiences of encountering God’s love. She is mother to a handsome young man, Lizo, and she believes in the simplicity of the Gospel and lives by the motto that “Christianity is simple, but religion is complicated.” Guided by Colossians 2:6, her mission is to help others embrace a life of simplicity in Christ.
What our students say
“In just a few weeks at Charis, my perspective has shifted dramatically. Despite growing up in a Christian family, I realized I had developed a faith based on my own experiences, leading to a hardened heart. However, Charis has shown me the power of true faith, allowing me to experience God’s love and goodness in a whole new way. Now I’m empowered to fully embrace who God says I am, without limitations, and walk confidently in His promises.”
“It has been the greatest journey of my life. Within a couple of days of being at Charis Bible College, I found myself having to unlearn so many things that I thought I knew as a Christian. The teachings are unfolding a God who is a thousand times more of a father than I had ever known. His love and acceptance for me are priceless. I love how practical my walk with Him truly is. There isn’t a person I come across that I do not share all of the things that I am learning with. This place is a home that I am so grateful for. The sisterhood is unsurpassed. Everybody has a little something special to give. I have found mothers, sisters, brothers, daughters and sons. I will carry everyone in my heart for eternity. I feel so blessed.”
“As a full-time second-year student at Charis Johannesburg, I found refuge from religious pressures and discovered true grace teachings, particularly through Andrew’s book ‘The War is Over’ in 2020. Attending Charis has helped me transition from performance-driven faith to a deeper understanding of grace, leading to personal healing and supernatural blessings. Through Charis, I’ve not only grown in boldness to teach but also found a supportive community that feels like home, making me proud to be part of this transformative educational journey.”
