An introduction to what Hindus believe and how Christians can reach out to them with the gospel
Part of the Engaging with series.
Hindus represent the third largest faith in the world, and yet many Christians know very little about their beliefs and lifestyle.
This short book is designed to help both Christians and whole churches to understand more about the beliefs, mindset and motivations of Hindus, and to reach out to them with the good news of the gospel.
Written at a level that everyone can understand, this book emphasises the importance of forming loving, honest and open relationships as part of the way we engage with our Hindu friends and neighbours.

I didn't have a clue about general, basic Hindu teachings I told I read this book. If you're in the same place, or what to sing refresh your memory, this book is a great choice. It covers a lot of key issues on their basic, fundamentals levels yet this book will give you good facts and information that you need to help share the good news of our God and saviour Jesus Christ to Hindus and perhaps other alike but this is of course best designed for our Hindu friends. I'd highly recommend this and the author has done a great job with this book. God bless 🙏💪
