The four great gods of Polynesian system were Ku, Kane, Kanaloa, and Lono; each possessing particular powers and duties.

Ku - architect and builder

Ku was great god presiding over war. Human sacrifices were made to him in temples built to honor Ku. His worship days, four in succession, occurred at start of moon month. The temples of Ku were built to certain specifications and presided over by a distinct cult of priests.

Kane - creator and giver of life

With aid of Lono, Kane created man. Kane created forests and brought certain rains and life to land. Kane was healer who resided in many of healing plants. He had his own temples and priests. Depending on attributes or purposes, Kane was known by many names.

Lono - god of agriculture and peace

This is where we begin - One day as I was reading Bible I came across and amazing scripture. Solomon's temple was completed and priests were ministering and then God's glory filled temple. The awe and reverence caused everyone to stop and let God inhabit worship.

Looking back I realized that there was a lot of hard work and preparation that needed to happen. The nation Israel needed to come together and build temple. It all started with a vision from David. He desired to build a temple that was worthy for God. But, he could not because he shed too much blood in his lifetime. The torch was past on to his son Solomon.

Then I noticed that there was a distinct pattern regarding various stages of project. And pattern fits no matter what kind of building project you start. I want to show you how it applies to your music ministry.

The metaphor of building a house is appropriate in fact that it gives you a visual model to help understand how to build your music ministry. And you can apply this basic principle to make vast improvements in way you minister to people you serve.
