Sinopsis

Penned in the mid-1970s, People Movements in the Punjab gives an accurate analysis of the history of the church in the Punjab. After spending 12 years ministering in Pakistan, the authors set about finding the answers to the following questions:á· What caused the church in the Punjab to grow from the 1880s into the first half of the 20th century?· Which missionary methods were effective, and which were ineffective?· What segments of society proved responsive?· Are any of these factors part of the present-day scene?áBased on primary sources, including church and mission records, missionary and nationalleadersâÇÖ biographies, and census reports, the authorâÇÖs well-written researchprovides a profound view of the churchesâÇÖ growth in the Punjab. The bookincludes a substantial appendix, 'A Brief Comparative Study of Other Churchesin Pakistan,' which gives a wealth of information. And although this study isbased on the growth of the church in Pakistan, the pattern of development andchurch growth principles apply to scores of areas on the Indian subcontinent aswell. This authentic church history has great relevance for the church and herleaders today.
