Jones, Stanley E.
Christ of the Indian Road / [print] E. Stanley Jones. - New York, Abingdon Press, (c)1925. - 213 pages : 23 cm
The Messenger and the Message -- The Motive and End of Christian Missions -- The Growing Moral and Spiritual Supremacy of Jesus -- Jesus Comes through Irregular Channels- Some Evangelistic Series -- The Great Hindrance -- The Question Hour -- Jesus through Experience -- What or Whom? -- Christ and the Other Faiths -- The Concrete Christ -- The Indian Interpretation of Jesus -- The Christ of the Indian Road.
Jones recounts his experiences in India, where he arrived as a young and presumptuous missionary who later matured into a veteran who attempted to contextualize Jesus Christ within the Indian culture. He names the mistake many Christians make in trying to impose their culture on the existing culture where they are bringing Christ. Instead he makes the case that Christians learn from other cultures, respect the truth that can be found there, and let Christ and the existing culture do the rest. https://www.amazon.com/Christ-Indian-Stanley-Jones-Foundation/dp/0687063779/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=9780687063772&qid=1629992336&s=books&sr=1-1
