Christians are only a small minority.
The number of Christians in the southern part of the country is much larger than those in the north, where in many areas less than one percent of the population is Christian. Those figures include nominal Christians as well as those who have a vibrant relationship with Christ. There are some areas where God seems to be blessing abundantly in India. One of the most responsive states to the gospel is Andhra Pradesh. The Baptist Church of Hyderabad has grown from seven couples twenty-seven years ago to 10,000 members.
