Popular Christianity in India explores Indian Christianity as
crafted and expressed through lived experience, providing an
important balance to currently available, typically theological,
studies. Drawing from many disciplines, this volume unearths the
multifaceted terrain of festivals, rituals, saints, miracle
workers, missionaries, and visionaries in Christian India,
providing a wonderful glimpse of its richness and complexities. The
contributors reveal the ways in which local Christian traditions
deftly challenge assumed divisions and power imbalances between
East and West, Hindu and Christian, foreign and indigenous, and
elite and local expressions. Whether forging complicated religious,
caste, and national identities, employing religious hybridity to
promote well-being, or asserting autonomy within oppressive social
and religious structures, local Christianity provides a crucial
means for its participants to manage their earthly needs and
desires.
