  the life of william carey: An Enquiry Into the Obligations of Christians to Use Means for the Conversion of the Heathens William Carey, 1792 The landmark text by William Carey sets out the principles of converting natives of foreign lands to Christianity. An Enquiry into the Obligations of Christians to Use Means for the Conversion of the Heathens led directly to the formation of the Baptist Missionary Society, and was to inspire Christian missionaries for generations to follow. The author himself could boast great experience: having amassed oratorical experience during his younger years as a schoolmaster, and as the pastor of Leicester's Harvey Lane Baptist Church. The text contains impassioned arguments which attempt to justify missionary work, followed by a researched history of the practice. Later, Carey discusses charts which measure populations through the world and their religious beliefs. All of these charts are reproduced for this edition, allowing the reader insight into Carey's ambitious approach. After publishing this text, Carey put his words into practice, spending decades following his famous essay's publication journeying through colonial India. He founded one of the country's first universities, and worked to spread the Christian gospel to numerous villages and towns in the subcontinent. Variously praised for his ideals of social reform, and lambasted for his unstinting commitment to colonial methods, Carey's most famous text is a superb entry point to his mind and undertakings. This edition contains the original charts, together with illustrations relevant to the missionary cause.

  the life of william carey: The Legacy of William Carey Vishal Mangalwadi, Ruth Mangalwadi, 1999-05-12 He was an industrialist. An economist. A medical humanitarian. A media pioneer. An educator. A moral reformer. A botanist. And a Christian missionary. And he did more for the transformation of the Indian subcontinent in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries than any other individual before or since. Many know of William Carey. Some know about the specifics of his work and ministry. But few understand the profound contemporary significance of his life. Few realize how much we owe the increasing globalization of Christianity to the silent revolution he initiated. Fewer still are aware of his legacy of sensitivity to the variety of issues confronting true gospel witness in any culture. This biography about the central character in the story of India's modernization and transformation will help you understand Carey's impact. But The Legacy of William Carey is more than a biography. It is a charge to all Christians to respond in kind within our own cultures, and to use Carey's example as our model for taking the light of the Gospel into every corner of society. If we follow in his footsteps, not only will lives be bettered this side of heaven, but hearts will be changed for eternity--and entire cultures transformed for Christ.

He was a British Christian missionary, Particular Baptist minister, translator, social reformer and cultural anthropologist who founded the first degree-awarding university in India. After he was forced to leave the British Indian territory by non-Baptist Christian missionaries, he joined the Baptist missionaries in the Danish colony in Serampore. One of his first contributions was to start schools for impoverished children where they were taught reading, writing, accounting and Christianity. He opened the first theological university in Serampore offering divinity degrees, and campaigned to end the practice of sati.

  the life of william carey: Expect Great Things, Attempt Great Things Allen Yeh, Chris Chun, 2013-09-04 William Carey, often dubbed The Father of Modern Missions, and Adoniram Judson, America's first intercontinental missionary, were pioneers whose missions overlapped in chronology, geography, and purpose. However, rarely are they both featured in the same volume or compared and contrasted. Here we have unique material by some of the world's leading experts on these two giants of missionary history, with perspectives on these men in ways never seen before. Especially relevant to this current age of World Christianity are the perspectives from India and Burma, the lands which received these men for their missionary enterprise.

  the life of william carey: The Life of William Carey George Smith, William Carey, 2017-01-13 When I first went to Serampore the great missionary had not been twenty years dead. During my long residence there as Editor of the Friend of India, I came to know, in most of its details, the nature of the work done by Carey for India and for Christendom in the first third of the century. I began to collect such materials for his Biography as were to be found in the office, the press, and the college, and among the Native Christians and Brahman pundits whom he had influenced. In addition to such materials and experience I have been favoured with the use of many unpublished letters written by Carey or referring to him; for which courtesy I here desire to thank Mrs. S. Carey, South Bank, Red Hill; Frederick George Carey, Esq., LL.B., of Lincoln's Inn; and the Rev. Jonathan P. Carey of Tiverton. My Biographies of Carey of Serampore, Henry Martyn, Duff of Calcutta, and Wilson of Bombay, cover a period of nearly a century and a quarter, from 1761 to 1878. They have been written as contributions to that history of the Christian Church of India which one of its native sons must some day attempt; and to the history of English-speaking peoples, whom the Foreign Missions begun by Carey have made the rulers and civilisers of the non-Christian world.

  the life of william carey: The Mind of a Missionary David Joannes, 2024 Charles Spurgeon once said, You're either a missionary or an imposter. To be a Christ-follower means joining Jesus on his mission to redeem humanity. But missional living is easier said than done in a culture drifting toward post-Christian secularism. More than ever, we need a dose of Jesus' missionary ethos to fill our minds with gospel passion ... Each chapter of this book highlights missionary heroes--historical and modern-day Christians--who challenge us to join God's redemptive mission ... You'll find that God uses ordinary, run-of-the-mill folks to extend his glory into the earthly setting. Author David Joannes draws upon history, psychology, life experience, and powerful storytelling to reshape your perception of God's unique plan for your life. He says, If you really want to thrive on mission, you must allow God to redefine your definition of the normal Christian life.--Publisher

  the life of william carey: The Life of William Carey PROFESSOR GEORGE. SMITH, 2015-07-19 Excerpt from The Life of William Carey: Shoe-Maker Missionary My three Biographies of Carey of Serampore, Duff of Calcutta, and Wilson of Bombay, cover a period of nearly a century and a quarter, from 1761 to 1878. They have been written as contributions to that history of the Church of India which one of its native sons must some day attempt; but also to the annals of the Evangelical Revival, which may well be called the Second Reformation; and to the history of English-speaking peoples, whom the Foreign Missions begun by Carey have made the rulers and civilisers of the non-christian world. The Life of the Rev. Krishna Mohun Banerjea, D.L., Dr. Duff's second convert, and from his baptism in 1832 to his death in 1885 the leader of the Native Christians of India, is being prepared by one of his grandsons. To complete the story so far as India is concerned, we still desiderate such a record of progress in South India from Ziegenbalg and Schwartz to Anderson and Miller as Bishop Caldwell could give us; and a biography of Charles Grant, for which, I believe, there are abundant materials.

  the life of william carey: Serampore Mission Johnson Thomaskutty, 2019 Actions have consequences, intended and unintended, and this is no less true of the Serampore Mission. Looking back at the humble and unprepossessing beginnings of this movement, one is filled with a sense of wonder encased with gratitude. While the present collection of essays are suffused with this same wonder and gratitude, they honestly interrogate and examine this incredible legacy and what the flowering of the Serampore Mission meant and continues to mean amidst the changing dynamics of ecclesial life, theological formation, educational policies, biblical interpretation, linguistic principles, reimagining mission today, valorizing the contributions of the marginalized groups, ecumenical imperatives, ecological challenges, and faithful ministry amidst the complex vicissitudes of 21st century India and beyond.
