Multi-cultural Britain

But where do we start in trying to understand Hinduism, separate it out from Islam, not to mention Buddhism, Sikhism, Taoism, and the irrepressible JWs? (My long blacklisting by the local Kingdom Hall seems to have worn off!) Are we scared that we might mess up and make some huge cultural faux pas? More to the point, is there a way in for sharing the gospel with particular people groups that will work?

The buses that come out of Ipswich each morning heading for the BT centre at Martlesham are loaded with Indians. About 1,000 work there, all short-term contractors here for six months, then shipped back ‘offshore’. Welcome to multi-cultural Britain, and the biggest gospel opportunity imaginable.
