letter from South Asia
A double standard that cannot be ignored
I have led churches in India for over 50 years, enjoying the privilege of walking with God’s people. Today, I feel heavy-hearted hearing about believers victimised by “anti-conversion laws” and their extreme amendments, which criminalise our basic faith expressions.
The Christian faith is communal. Since ancient times, Christians have gathered in homes for prayer, Bible study, and fellowship. The church has endured trials over the centuries simply by meeting together.
