Christianity in India: Two Thousand Years of Faith Hardcover - 2005
by Leonard Fernando; G. Sauch-Gispert
Christians have lived in India since the early centuries of this era. In South India they believe their ancestors received the Gospel from the apostle Thomas. Written by two of the country's foremost theologians, this book traces the fascinating history of the various Christian communities, and describes the role of Christians in education, social services, multilingual publishing, and the freedom struggle. The first of its kind for the general reader, Christianity in India is a priceless compendium of history, theology, folklore and anecdote, to be relished and referenced by anyone curious about the Indian story and practice of one of the world's major faiths.
Summary
Along the way, we meet interesting personalities in the annals of Indian Christendom, such as Emperor Akbar, who essentially founded the North Indian Christian mission, and Brahmabandhab Upadhyay, the swadeshi Catholic who helped Tagore found Santiniketan.
