FaithIsland – Podcast
by Pastor Mitch
Whenever someone says, no one lives on an island alone – at OSHi, Aiea we are living proof. We live on an island, but we are never alone. We welcome you to journey with us as we follow Jesus – through this life – finally arriving at the life to come. Aloha ke Akua!

- It takes faith to trust in this Book and I know that doesn't always come easy. Just a reminder – this book doesn't save you – no book on earth or in the heavens can do that. What saves you is Jesus and only Jesus. This book just opens up […]
