Mission proceeds from the very heart of God. His love for the lost and efforts for reconciliation with the fallen humankind is absolutely remarkable. Since the fall of Adam and Eve, He is continuously making intentional efforts by sending His agents of peace. The human history has witnessed God's enabling power in and through the lives of many saints who dedicated themselves for the accomplishment of His Mission to reach each human hearts. God convinced me of His eternal love and graciously instilled His vision to reach the unreached places in India, South Asia and beyond by developing Christ-like leaders. It is beyond my imagination to consider myself worthy for His divine mission. But, God's enabling grace sustained me and Mission India/RIMI came into existence as an obedience to our Master's call to serve the humankind.

Past 25 years is a journey of listening attentively to our Lord's voice and walking tirelessly on His footsteps. Even though, this journey was marked with constant challenges of many kinds in the mission field, but, His super natural intervention and enigmatic provision was always on time. Fast few decades have taught me to discern God's movement among the communities of India and constant engagement with the fellow mission workers, church planters and several Christian organizations provided the necessary insights to understand the core need of these communities. Since the inception, Mission India exists to study the communities, understand God's move and engage in God's mission promptly. Apart from my other publications, I had the desire to accumulate the learned insights of past missional experiences in the light of existing resources on Christian Missions and publish it in a book format. I am grateful to God for this opportunity to produce an understandable and an introductory book on Christian Missions. Mr Salim Tapan Pani joined me on this endeavor and contributed significant insights from his theological and missional experiences.
