The Kingdom of Heaven & The Kingdom of Hawaiʻi
Sharing the gospel message through the history of Hawaiʻi.
Maui Historical Mural and Digital Learning Experience
Moʻolelo Kūʻiʻo partnered with Maui Christian Academy to create a student driven historical mural that brings Hawaiian Christian history to life through art, education, and primary source connection.
This interactive mural was researched and guided by our team, then painted by students and faculty, highlighting major moments in Hawaiian history including the rise of literacy, early Hawaiian believers, and the shaping of the kingdom through faith and learning.
Each panel includes a QR code that links viewers to digital content, archival materials, and deeper learning resources. This experience allows students, visitors, and families to walk through history visually and then explore the original documents and stories behind every scene.
This project reflects our mission to equip schools, churches, and communities with truth based historical education that honors both ʻāina and kupuna while inspiring the next generation to love learning, seek truth, and know the story of Hawaiʻi.
The Adventures of Thomas Hopu
The Adventures of Thomas Hopu brings forward the story of one of the most important yet often overlooked figures in early Hawaiian history. Hopu’s life stands at the foundation of the Hawaiian Christian story. He helped open the door for the first mission company, served as a trusted translator, shaped early education efforts, and became a key voice during one of the most significant cultural transitions in Hawai‘i. This book highlights his real historical impact and preserves his legacy for a new generation of readers. A button below will take you to the Amazon page where the book can be purchased.
