Borderless Spirituality: An Intercultural Inquiry into the Appropriation of Faiths in South Indian Religious Context

Rev. Dr. Vinod S. Sailus’s Book Borderless Spirituality: An Intercultural Inquiry into the Appropriation of Faiths in South Indian Religious Context demonstrates powerfully how a sincere Christ centered religious experience can be understood in a culturally and religiously pluralistic society. With the support of the reliable and legitimate research the author explores the origin and growth of Mission Studies in India and advocates the importance of gaining insights from faith communities of all living religions for a legitimate practice and propagation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The book titled Borderless Spirituality: An Intercultural Inquiry into the Appropriation of Faiths in South Indian Religious Context authored by Rev. Dr. Vinod S. Sailus examines the potentials of Appropriation of Faiths within the context of Shared Sacred Places in South India as a means to promote Intercultural Theology, peaceful coexistence, and religious harmony, while challenging traditional understanding and practices of conversion. It suggests that embracing Appropriation of Faiths and celebrating diversity can lead to a Holistic Mission that addresses both spiritual and societal aspects, offering a positive way forward for the Indian Church.
