The Amazing Story of Pakistan's Christians

“A thought-provoking journey through the struggles and triumphs of a resilient community.”

Morris Johns (APPG for Pakistani Minorities)

The Amazing Story of Pakistan’s Christians A look back over 2,000 years of Christian history in the land we now know as Pakistan

“This book is full of stories and political events that shaped the country and Christian community of Pakistan.”

Dr. Samuel Naaman (Moody Bible Institute, Chicago)

“I wholeheartedly recommend this book.... It is indeed a treasure trove of knowledge and insight.”

Dr James Shera MBE (Politician, Educationist and former Mayor of Rugby)

From the Preface This book was first prepared as a textbook for Pakistan’s Christian students. As far as we can tell, no such attempt has been made to survey the history of Christianity in the area that is today known as Pakistan...

Today’s Christians in Pakistan need to know more about their rich history that stretches back for 2,000 years — and we feel the world needs to hear the story too!

We think you will also enjoy the journey.

This is not an academic or comprehensive survey. It is a story — actually many stories of events, people and personalities — designed to be an enjoyable and inspiring read.

Fully illustrated and referenced
