My very first memory is a compound house in Accra. About 150 people living inside it — a village within a city. I was very small. My mother was turning fufu by the door. And while the adults around me talked about their mothers and their grandmothers, something happened in my brain.

I started tracing. Her mother. Her mother's mother. All the way back. Until I hit the only name I knew at the beginning of everything.

And then I asked: Who made God?

The response? "We don't think about those things oo. Else you will go mad."

They laughed. And I learned to stop asking.

In this first episode of ABA, The Seed, host Aaron Boakye Acquah traces the question that started it all — from a childhood memory in a Ghanaian compound house to a personal revival that gave him a new name and a new assignment.

This episode covers: — The question that shaped a lifetime of searching — How culture and church can silence genuine spiritual curiosity — A journey into theology, quantum physics, ancient Hebrew, and Greek philosophy — The meaning behind the name ABA — and why this podcast exists — An open invitation to everyone who was told their questions were too dangerous

This is not a podcast with all the answers. It is a podcast that believes the questions themselves are sacred.

ABA The Seed is for the curious, the church-hurt, the hungry, and the honest. For everyone who stopped asking out loud but never stopped asking inside.

My name is Aaron. God calls me ABA.

And this is where we grow.
