The Importance of the Creation Message in India
Guests: Douglas Sharp, Rich Geer, Kancherla Sirish
Description: This is an interview with Kancherla Sirish, a school teacher in India who describes the importance of the Biblical message of creation to Christianity in India. Christians form a very small minority in India, and face some unique challenges in their culture in presenting the gospel of Jesus Christ. The majority of people in India are Hindu, and another minority religion is Islam. Hindus serve many different gods, and to them Jesus Christ is just one other god to add to the pantheon of gods they serve. In addition, they believe that theirs is the oldest religion going back many eons in time, and to them the evolutionary worldview is compatible with their Hindu religion. Sirish is instead teaching the Biblical model of creation and found support and comfort in the Revolution Against Evolution book that was sent to him in 2004.
