Description
The Apostles of India is a comprehensive historical account of the early Christian missionaries who played a pivotal role in establishing Christianity in India. Originally delivered as the prestigious Baird Lecture in 1915, this work by J. N. Ogilvie provides scholarly insights into the lives, missions, and contributions of these religious figures.
The book traces the journeys of apostles and missionaries who ventured to India to spread Christian faith and teachings. It examines their methods, challenges, and the cultural interactions that resulted from their evangelical work. Ogilvie’s detailed narrative sheds light on how these missionaries influenced Indian society, their relationships with local populations, and the development of early Christian communities in India.
This scholarly work remains an important resource for understanding the history of Christianity in India, missionary work during the colonial period, and the intersection of Western religious movements with Indian culture and spirituality.
