About

Builder. Custodian. Transmitter. Prophetic writer and publisher based in England.

Builder and Steward of Integrated Kingdom Frameworks

Eva-Marie is a prophetic writer, independent publisher, and Kingdom framework builder based in England. She publishes under the Pearls of Wisdom imprint and is the custodian of the Mandona Development Model — an integrated framework for spiritual, economic, educational, and societal transformation developed by her late father, Lt. Col. H.K. Mandona.

Her work spans discipleship literature, children's publishing, prophetic writing, social business architecture, and intergenerational legacy preservation. What looks from the outside like multiple projects is, from the inside, one ecosystem — four pillars around a single governing mandate.

At the centre of all of it is a conviction: frameworks that are grounded in Scripture, rooted in community, and built for inheritance can outlive the individuals who carry them.

"I will bless the LORD who has given me counsel; my heart also instructs me in the night seasons."

Psalm 16:7

Four Pillars. One Mandate.

Everything Eva-Marie builds radiates outward from one centre: the preservation, development, and transmission of integrated Kingdom frameworks across generations. That centre currently expresses itself through four operational pillars.

01

Foundation & Legacy — The Mandona Development Model

The governing centre of the ecosystem. Lt. Col. H.K. Mandona's complete framework for African development — the clan, the land, and agape love as the animating principle of every institution. Eva-Marie is its custodian, editor, and the architect of its ongoing development into a social business and institutional model.

02

Formation Tools — Publishing & Discipleship

26 published books including the Pearls of Wisdom devotional series, Night Watches, the Kingdom Entrepreneur Discipleship Curriculum, and the Prophetic Insights Newsletter. Every title serves the larger framework.

03

Cultural Preservation — Children's Literature

The Zara Series — six picture books for children aged 5–7. African-inspired watercolour illustrations. Stories that root African children in identity, belonging, and faith. Representation as necessity, not trend.

04

Economic Vehicles — Social Business & Publishing

The Pearls of Wisdom imprint, Amazon KDP worldwide distribution, and the developing Mandona Social Business Model — enterprise structures that serve the mission rather than the mission serving the enterprise.

"The ecosystem already exists in seed form."

The next phase is not invention. It is alignment, integration, governance, simplification, and maturation. The threshing is thorough before the grain is plentiful.

Micah 4:13 — Anchor Scripture
Foundation & Legacy

Lt. Col. H.K. Mandona (Rtd) · 1948–2023

Humphrey Kingston Mandona was born in Ndola, Zambia in 1948. He trained as a military officer in Canada, qualified as an automotive engineer in London, studied management in Japan and at Henley Management College. He rose to Lieutenant Colonel in the Zambian Army and spent his retirement asking one question: what does genuine national development look like, rooted not in external dependency but in the clan, the land, and the God he served?

He died on 1 January 2023. His voice lives in the pages of the books he left behind — and in the work his daughter continues to build on the foundation he laid.
