Biography
[edit | edit source]Samuel was born in August 1942[1] in Hyderabad, India, as the eldest boy of four children. He became a Christian in his teenage years and studied theology at Union Biblical Seminary, Pune, and completed his graduate studies at the University of Cambridge. He was a minister of St. John's Church, Bangalore (1975–1983) and was founding director of the Oxford Centre for Mission Studies (1992–2001 and 2005–2006).[2]
Samuel's theology is largely shaped by his concern for Christian mission within the Indian context. This has underscored an evangelical understanding of holistic mission, which combines evangelism with social concern for the poor, as well as interfaith dialogue.[3][4]
