Global Strategies Track | Workshop Set 4

Thursday, September 29, 2022 15:45 PM

Description

Primary Audience Anyone engaged in Hindu ministry, both in India and in the USA and other diasporas Description Materialism and success are the new gods ruling many young Indian/Hindu lives, in competition with the rise of Hindu fundamentalism.

These polar opposites both stand on a foundation of the modern Hindu consensus that developed in the late colonial era, and which overwhelmingly rebuffed Christian evangelistic approaches (with exceptions on the fringes of Hindu society among Dalits and tribal peoples).

Globalization has thus only made increasingly complex an already too-complicated scenario in terms of presenting Christ to Hindus. This seminar will explore these issues and probe fresh approaches aimed at gaining a new hearing from Hindu peoples.

Global Report: Ministries Now Aim to Reach Hindu Heads as Well as Hearts

C. Kaushal remembered the bloody partition of India in 1947 as if it happened last week. Kaushal was 9 years old when the British withdrew from India, sparking the slaughter of half a million Muslims and Hindus. His family, which worshiped the monkey god Hanuman and four other gods, had little sympathy for the monotheistic Muslim minority.

Rethinking Indian Missions for a Changing World

By Isac Soundararaja | India is poised to play a significant role in global missions beyond its borders, and India’s diaspora will be a major part. Yet fully participating requires rethinking strategy and collaborating with global partners. This brings into view the necessity of Global North and Global South partners learning to work more closely as peers in global mission.
