Dr Ma'ia'i's aim is not to challenge Pratt but rather to correct this over simplification of an oral language where real meaning comes from context.

Following up on his first two books on Church events and the history of the Assembly of God Church in American Samoa, author Fuimaono Fini Aitaoto delves deeper into new science discoveries as they relate to Christianity. If you're interested in Church-related events on the Samoan Islands during the early twenty-first century, then you need this book.
