WHAT IS IT AND WHY?
As Christians, we embrace the truth that we have been blessed so we can be a blessing to the nations (Gal 3:8). As Christians, we yearn that all the world’s people(s) will have a tangible opportunity to comprehend the grace of God incarnated in Jesus Christ.
For this reason, we inform ourselves, so that we may understand, and learn how to pray for and support respectful efforts to make that grace also known within our world’s Indian and Hindu communities.
It is not our intention with this prayer focus to disparage India or its majority
religion in any way, and we recognize that India and Hinduism are far too complex and so full of great traditions to easily condense, explain, or take lightly within a mere booklet.
