  • “GOAT” - Dr. Gary Scott Smith

    “GOAT” - Dr. Gary Scott Smith
    Jun 7 2024
    One of today’s fiercest and most enjoyable debates involves which athletes are the GOATs—the greatest of all time—in various sports. In recent years, the debate over GOATs has intensified as hundreds of bloggers, podcasters, websites, and radio and television talk shows have discussed this issue and numerous polls of sportswriters and fans have been conducted. Comparing athletes from different eras is especially difficult because training regiments, equipment, and the level of competition has changed over time. Plus, pundits disagree about what being the “greatest” means. Dr. Gary Scott Smith is a professional historian and avid sports fan. He is also the author and editor of 18 books, including Strength for the Fight: The Life and Faith of Jackie Robinson.

    “Shelley’s Story” - Dr. Morris Isara
    Jun 7 2024
    Sexual abuse is a painful subject. Some victims suffer in silence and go to their grave having never shared their secret with anyone. Others may take years before revealing their history to a confidante or their spouse but are reluctant to disclose details or seek professional help. They might mask their wounds with smiles and people-pleasing, but the pain remains buried in the soul. Shelley’s Story, a debut novel, encourages victims of sexual abuse to know that God offers hope. Dr. Morris Isara is the author of Shelley’s Story: Creating Ripples of Hope, Healing, and Restoration from Abuse. He co-founded Shepherd’s Wellspring Ministries, a pastoral counseling resource ministry, with his wife Jasmine in 2017. Morris also wrote the memoir, What Now, God? Rising from the Pain of Loss and Learning to Live Again, after losing Jasmine to COVID in 2021.

    David & Ululani Yamashiro started their Ululani’s Hawaiian Shave Ice journey in Lahaina, Maui in December 2008. Their Lahaina shops have been the foundation of success. Most of their west-side staff were born and raised in Lahaina and have given many good years of their lives. From the first shave ice… till the last, served on August 7th, 2023, countless memorable experiences were delivered by this team. On Tuesday, August 8th, employees and all Lahaina residents suffered an unprecedented and horrendous wildfire that decimated the town. They lost their homes, schools, churches, and everything that they own. David and Ululani lost two shops and a warehouse in the fire. They have received numerous calls, texts, and emails from family, friends, and past customers to help. Ululani’s Hawaiian Shave Ice is now providing support to their employees during this time of recovery and rebuilding with the help of generous donors.

Sharing this link (https://gofund.me/437cb755) will broaden our reach and help them achieve their goal. 75% of the donations from this GoFundMe page (https://gofund.me/437cb755)will go directly to help employees. 25% will go to Lahaina organizations that David and Ululani deem fit to distribute the proceeds to the Lahaina families with the greatest needs.
