Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book takes you on a journey to the remote island of Lifu in the Loyalty Group, offering a captivating glimpse into the lives of its inhabitants before and after the arrival of Christianity. Through vivid descriptions and insightful anecdotes, the author paints a picture of a society steeped in superstition, marked by intertribal warfare and the practice of cannibalism. The arrival of Pao, a young Raratongan teacher, marks a turning point in the island's history. His unwavering faith and courage in the face of adversity pave the way for a profound transformation, as the islanders gradually embrace the message of the Gospel. The author skillfully captures the clash between tradition and change, highlighting the challenges and triumphs that accompany the introduction of new beliefs and practices. This book is more than just a historical account; it delves into the deeper themes of human resilience, the power of faith, and the transformative potential of cultural encounters. By offering a nuanced perspective on the impact of Christianity on Lifu, the author invites us to reflect on the complexities of cultural change and the enduring strength of the human spirit. Ultimately, this book leaves us with a profound appreciation for the enduring impact of Pao's mission and the remarkable transformation of Lifu society.
