entry 31
page of reflection:179-180
Mr. Brown wasn't like most of the other missionaries, he was
calm and listened. He became friends with some of the important people of Umuomia
he learned many things from them especially of their beliefs. Brown became friends
with Akunna one of the great men of the clan. He would visit him frequently one
tried to convert the other to their beliefs, neither succeeded. Brown would
explain that to Akunna that their is only one god you are suppose to serve who
is all powerful. What is funny is that Akunna explains that they do have one god
like this as well his name is Chukwu. Even though none of the two men had any
luck in converting the other they did learn a lot from each other, and they realized
that they weren't so different. However, Mr. Brown stayed firm in his teachings
through his firmness he attracted people to his church, perhaps by speaking
with Akunna he learned things that helped him out.
