Two years after Manish left Hinduism to follow Jesus in 2008, he began sharing the gospel full-time in local Hindu communities in India. Recently, Hindu nationalists have started to push back. On Feb. 22, as Pastor Manish led a Sunday worship service, a group of roughly 20 Hindu men and women entered his church and threatened the congregation, sexually assaulted the women, and frightened the children. “They warned the believers and the pastor’s family that they would face social boycott, including the stoppage of government-provided supplies and cancellation of their ID cards,” an International Christian Concern (ICC) staffer said.
