Description:... This work is an attempt to critically assess the life and the theology of the small churches in India especially in the Teluguspeaking land of Andhra Pradesh in the South.
For a close examination the author chose the Bible Mission which started as a break-away group from his own Church, the Andrha Evangelical Lutheran Church.
The relationship of these small groups to the mission churches and their appeal to the non-Christians has been a much discussed subject in India in recent times.
