Converting Christianity to Indians refers to the efforts made to spread the Christian faith among Indigenous peoples in India, often involving the adaptation of religious practices and teachings to resonate with local cultures and traditions. This process has historically included translation of The Bible into local languages and the incorporation of Indian cultural elements in worship. However, it has also been met with resistance, as it raises issues of cultural identity, colonialism, and the preservation of Indigenous beliefs. Ultimately, it reflects a complex interplay of faith, culture, and social dynamics in Indian society.
