The difference between “can't” and “don't”
A practical, accessible handbook that challenges the difference between “can't” and “don't” — an invitation to rebuild a culture where reading becomes visible, writing becomes possible, and wisdom is preserved for the next generation. Read one. Write one. Leave one.
Leadership
The art of sustainable influence across changing seasons
What does it take to stay on top across every season? A study of influence that lasts — how to serve, lead and remain relevant whoever holds the crown.
Youth & Family
Preparing young people for life, not just for results
Matric is a milestone, not the finish line. A wake-up call for learners, parents and teachers to prepare young people for the real world beyond exam results.
Youth & Family
Becoming the parent you've never seen
Becoming the parent you've never seen and trying to excel in a field you've never studied — honest guidance for parents raising children without a blueprint.
Leadership
Out of clutter, find simplicity
Great leaders strip away noise, complex bureaucracy and unnecessary tasks so their teams can focus on what truly matters. Impactful leadership stems from empathy — people change for the better when they feel respected and valued.
Leadership
Building a life strong enough to carry others
“Balance is not a destination. It is a discipline.” Hard-earned lessons on the foundations of a strong life, the seasons of leadership, the power of people, and the legacy you leave behind.
Business & Society
Circumcised or castrated?
Not an argument that everyone must leave employment — a call to recover productive agency. Find a problem. Start where you are. Use what you have. Serve somebody. Earn something honestly. Learn. Improve. Repeat.
Business & Society
Women in the taxi industry
Engagements, observations and development initiatives from Thomas Radebe's years in the taxi industry — shining a light on the women who make up barely 2% of its workforce.
Business & Society
The untold story of South Africa's taxi industry
A story of hope, human development and driver well-being — changing how the public sees the minibus taxi industry and the people who built it.
Personal Growth
Because time is the life we are living
“Every person receives 86,400 seconds each day, and every tick of the clock moves forward without the ability to rewind.” An invitation to reclaim more than minutes and hours — to reclaim dignity, trust, opportunity, relationships and life itself.
Faith & Ethics
The hidden violence of gossip, slander and character assassination
How careless words quietly wound people, teams and communities — exposing the hidden violence of gossip and slander, and the courage it takes to speak to people instead of about them.
Personal Growth
A handbook for every dreamer called to carry more than they can explain
Using Joseph, the son of Jacob, as a case study, this book walks the road from the field to the palace — the hatred his difference attracted, the pit, the slavery, the false accusation, the prison and the forgotten years. At every stage what was being tested was not the dream but the dreamer: why integrity comes before the vision, how to stay excellent in the wrong address, and why delay is a spring being compressed.
Faith & Ethics
Is AI competing or complementing God's voice?
Humanity stands at a new frontier where artificial intelligence meets ancient faith. A thought-provoking exploration of faith, technology, spiritual authority and discernment — when the digital becomes indistinguishable from the divine, discernment is no longer optional.
Personal Growth
A society's fight back against suicide
A groundbreaking, biblically anchored and deeply personal response to the silent epidemic of suicide — written with the authority of a man who stood at the very edge and chose to unfold the towel instead of throwing it in.
Faith & Ethics
A word to the wounded shepherd
“Turn around and take me out of the battle, for I am wounded.” Built on King Ahab's honest sentence in 1 Kings 22:34, and drawing on thirty years of ministry and his own season of burnout and rest, Thomas Radebe speaks plainly to wounded pastors and leaders: the wound is not a sign of weak faith — what decides whether it ends a ministry or becomes a testimony is what the leader does next.
Leadership
How to Become a Chicken Without Running From the Incubation Room
Killing Goliath made David a hero. Navigating Saul made him a king — two completely different battles, fought with two completely different weapons. One required force, the other wisdom; one demanded the gifts of the Spirit, the other the fruit of the Spirit. This book asks what most leadership literature avoids: what do you do when the enemy is not a giant outside the camp, but a threatened, jealous, God-appointed leader inside it?
Faith & Ethics
Why the Church Survived COVID But Failed to Recover From It
A diagnosis of the post-COVID church: preachers rushed back to the pulpit, programmes restarted — and nobody stopped to ask whether the anointing had returned with them. COVID-19 was the enemy's Delilah moment: the assignment was not destruction, it was normalisation — to make the church look like any other organisation that closes when the government says close and collapses when the crowds stop coming.
