Join Nathan and Gabe as we scratch the surface of the vast experience of Christians in India. With ancient ties to the Apostle Thomas, regions of India have a rich history of faith in Jesus. But today, 12 out of the 28 states have passed anti-conversion laws, and churches experiencing extreme forms of persecution is tragically common, with many believers incarcerated for their faith. Having recently connected with believers in India working to strengthen the Church, Gabe draws us close through their stories of faith, reminding us of God's abiding presence.
