The Bride Price Of Six Cows Becomes Eight For Love
A Pacific island tale of Sammy Papalua and his bride price bid, where the father starts at six cows and the groom counters eight to show he values his future wife. The story is used to illustrate the deeper Christian message of God’s costly love in sending Jesus to redeem humanity. The author asks readers how this knowledge reshapes their relationship with God.
