- Abstract
- The missionaries that came to Hawai'i in 1820 tried to make the Hawaiian converts into New England Christians. This project contends that Christian blessings can be given in a traditional Hawaiian form that would enable believers to connect with unchurched friends and neighbors and thereby proclaim the blessing that is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It was found that in the experience of the volunteers, giving blessing opens up deeper discussions with coworkers, friends and neighbors and that such discussions can and do lead to sharing the good news of God's blessing. This project uses a qualitative, pro-active approach with an interpretivistic worldview (with some premodern tinges).
