Gospel musician, Diana Hamilton, has advised the youth to balance their spiritual life with personal growth, education, and career development.
She stated in a JoyNews interview that while faith is important, excessive focus on religious activities at the expense of personal development may hinder long-term success.
Speaking on the issue, she cautioned against spending one’s time in church without investing in education and essential life skills.
“If you spend all your time at church without focusing on your education or learning how to interact with people, you’ll find yourself in the same situation ten years from now, still saying that you want to help the church,” she said.
Diana Hamilton also emphasised that true service to God and the community requires personal development.
She explained that young people must equip themselves with knowledge and skills that will allow them to support not only themselves but also their families and society.
She also raised concerns about a growing trend among young women who prioritise church rehearsals over learning essential life skills such as cooking.
“When mum is in the kitchen and asks for a helping hand, you say you have rehearsals at church. A sister may not know how to cook rice, but she knows all the food joints in Ghana,” she stated.
