Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking work, Peter Mills reveals a wealth of insight into the emergence of the Hawaiian nation-state from sources mostly ignored by colonial and post-colonial historians alike. By examining how early Hawaiian chiefs appropriated Western sailing technology to help build their island nation, Mills presents the fascinating history of sixty Hawaiian-owned schooners, brigs, barks, and peleleu canoes. While these vessels have often been dismissed as examples of chiefly folly, Mills highlights their significance in Hawaiʻi’s rapidly evolving monarchy, and aptly demonstrates how the monarchy’s own nineteenth-century sailing fleet facilitated fundamental transformations of interisland tributary systems, alliance building, exchange systems, and emergent forms of Indigenous capitalism. Part One covers broad trends in Hawaiʻi’s changing maritime traditions, beginning with the evolution of Hawaiian archaic states in the precontact era. Mills argues that Indigenous trends towards political intensification under the predecessors to Kamehameha I set the stage for Kamehameha’s own rapid appropriation of Western sailing vessels. From the first procurement of a Western-style vessel in 1790 through the beginning of the constitutional monarchy in 1840, these vessels were part of a nuanced strategy that promoted a diverse revenue base for the monarchy and developed greater international parity in Hawaiʻi’s foreign diplomacy. Part Two presents the histories of the sixty vessels owned by Hawaiian chiefs between 1790 and 1840, discussing their significance, origin, physical attributes, ownership, procurement, and purpose. Using newspapers and other contemporaneous sources, Mills uncovers little-known details of more than 2,000 voyages around and between the islands and to distant parts of the Pacific. His meticulous documentation of each ship’s itinerary is a valuable resource for tracking the movement of chiefs and commoners between islands as they engaged in the business of building a newly interconnected Hawaiian nation. Part Three connects these previously neglected maritime stories with an expanding body of historical treatments of Hawaiian agency. Readers with enthusiasm for life in nineteenth-century Hawaiʻi will appreciate the entertaining and, at times, deeply moving glimpses into the daily lives of individuals in Hawaiʻi’s pluralistic port communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationships we establish in the kingdom of God are very important, and no matter the gift you are given to be in the kingdom of God or the office or role you and I are placed in we must handle these offices and roles from a place of wisdom and understanding of God's purpose for those relationships.The bible refers to those of us in the church as family and with that understanding we must operate as a family without ruining the plan and purpose of God by taking lightly and abusing these relationships.Through analogy we will see how there can be stark differences between our natural family teachings and the way the Lord teaches us to treat each other when we come into the family of Christ.We will discuss ways to use wisdom to enter into these spiritual relationships to ensure we are connected and dwell with each other with understanding. We should know what to expect from one another as well how to resolve conflicts as they arise in our new spiritual family.

Download or read book Connecting to the Kingdom written by Leslie Stephen Biggs and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project tells the story of how the leadership team of Elk Lake Baptist Church is seeking to connect more fully with the kingdom of God. The kingdom of God is explored as central to the message and mission of Jesus and understood therefore to be central to the message and mission of His church. Since the kingdom of God is central to Jesus and should be central to our approach to ministry, then being disconnected, to any degree, from the kingdom of God, is seen to be a serious matter demanding our attention. The concepts of "story" and "worldview" were found to be helpful in seeking to connect the ministry of the church to the kingdom of God. Our need to change our "framing story" as a leadership team reminds us that repentance and conversion are to be ongoing realities in our experience as followers of Jesus. Reframing the story by which we live is certainly not a simple matter. This project explores the challenges of making this kind of change. The ministry actions pursued were intended to help the participants begin the journey from one framing story to another. Four ministry actions were pursued and then evaluated. All of the participants in the project grappled honestly and earnestly with the issues raised. Progress was made, during the course of this project, as connecting the ministry of our church to the kingdom of God. We are more aware than ever of the beauty and importance of the kingdom of God and we are beginning to practice ministry in terms of being agents for the kingdom. It is also recognized that our journey into kingdom ways is just beginning, but joy is found when the passion of Jesus becomes our passion. With greater and greater passion and understanding, we pray, "Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
