Her divine journey started in 1989 when she was in high school and she is proud to be a product of the Scripture Union.
It might sound as if she now brags about how life has been good to her through pursuing religious work but she insists: “I knew that sooner or later God would give me the wherewithal to get me where I am today but it was a result of a lot of hard work.”
Kanyathi, recently ordained Apostle for Zoe Life Changing Ministries, is a graduate from Calvary University in the United Kingdom and holder of a degree in Religious Studies.
She is obsessed with writing books, a passion she developed after realising her potential.
Having started writing in 2001, her first book was published in 2009 and to date she has more than 15 publications.
Among her motivational book titles are Woman of Substance and Excellence, From Ashes to Beauty, Wisdom Nuggets and Acquire What You Require.Her desire and passion to see others learn is the force that continuously drives her to write and her ideologies are deeply rooted in her courage and in the belief that books uncover the truth rather than hide it from the people.
“Long ago I learnt of a devastating stereotype that said ‘If you want to hide something from an African put it into a book’ and I felt this misconception was misleading.
“This influenced me to write books and the passion I have for others to learn of the amazing things God has in store for everyone keeps me writing.“Circumstances in my life have also changed me and the way I perceive things,” she said.
