Episode 58 - The only village in the Pacific that renounced its culture completely for Jesus Christ.

What happens when an entire village makes the decision to turn away from its traditional practices and fully embrace Jesus Christ? In this episode, I am joined by **Bri Olewale from Hula (Vulaa), Papua New Guinea**, to explore the remarkable story of his village and its transformation following the arrival of Christian missionaries in 1909. We discuss how the people of Hula reportedly renounced traditional practices, burned cultural objects, and embraced a new way of life centred on Christianity. This conversation raises important questions about **Christ over culture**: What happens when cultural traditions conflict with biblical teachings? Should every cultural practice be preserved, or should everything be examined in the light of God's Word? Join us as we explore faith, cultural transformation, the history of Christianity in Papua New Guinea, and what it means to put Jesus Christ above all things.
