James. Impact New Testament Commentary 16

Fountain Press, 2026

The Epistle of James confronts the enduring question of why the righteous suffer, urging Christians to view hardship as a joyful path to spiritual maturity. In an age shaped by prosperity thinking and increasing material, physical, and emotional strain, his call to patient endurance remains urgent. Believers are to live by the royal law of love, using wise speech that heals rather than divides. Genuine faith expresses itself through mercy toward the vulnerable, crossing social and economic boundaries. Rejecting consumerist desires, James advocates simplicity and humble dependence on God. His letter ultimately summons suffering communities to unity, mutual care, and steadfast hope.

Beyond Dalit Theology. Searching for New Frontiers 

Fortress Press, 2022 

This book critiques Dalit theology and proposes future directions for a theology of social transformation in India. Dalit theology has ruled the roost in the Indian theological landscape for the last forty years. It has captivated the theological imagination in India, despite other theological movements, such as tribal theology, green theology, and so on, which are relatively recent and have had little impact. Despite the dominance of Dalit theology, many writers have questioned its social impact and theological efficacy. This book draws on the critique to propose a theology of social transformation in India. It explores new ways of doing Christology, pneumatology, and ecclesiology. In addition, it argues for the need of a public theology in the changing religious-political scenario in India.

Pandita Ramabai versus Swami Vivekananda: Two Visions of India

This is more than a story about two remarkable nineteenth-century Indians. It is a story about two competing ways of seeing India itself. Pandita Ramabai and Swami Vivekananda were contemporaries, reformers, and influential voices who introduced India to the Western world. Swami Vivekananda (b. 1863—d. 1902 and Pandita Ramabai (b. 1858—d.1922) were contemporaries for about 39 years. Pandita Ramabai was five years older than the Swami and lived 20 more years than he did. Both individuals had connections to Brahmo Samaj. Swami Vivekananda was an official member, whereas Pandita Ramabai closely aligned with its principles and members but did not formally join. When Ramabai arrived in Kolkata in 1878, she received a warm welcome from Brahmo Samaj leaders such as Keshab Chandra Sen, who was notably impressed by her Sanskrit skills and encouraged her to study the Vedas, which were traditionally restricted to men. Although she adopted many of the movement's social reform ideas—such as opp...

While Waiting for Home

 “For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come. Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name” (Heb 13:14—15). Living as a foreigner is a strange experience. Nothing belongs to them in the country where they live. If the foreigner is a newcomer, he needs help to make sense of things happening around him. Homesickness is high in the first few weeks, though it may wear out as time goes on.  Christ-followers are sojourners on earth. Saint Peter calls them "sojourners and exiles" (1 Pet 2:11). The writer of Hebrews depicts them as people waiting in a foreign country for their permanent residence or a city that is to come. Paul reminded the church in Philippi, though they are Roman citizens that their real citizenship is in heaven, where Jesus is. "But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ…" (Phil 3:20). Christ...
