We foster a reasonable faith.
The Carpenter’s Desk is a Christian ministry based in India. Our core purpose is to influence and shape culture through the redemptive message of the Gospel. Through accessible online resources and engaging public events, we strive to highlight the beauty and distinctiveness of Christ while providing thoughtful responses to contemporary intellectual challenges to faith.
The Carpenter’s Desk is guided by a two-fold vision that shapes our purpose. Firstly, our commitment is to equip and train believers, enabling them to effectively articulate the Christian faith and live out the biblical worldview in the public sphere. Secondly, we engage skeptics with persuasive and compelling reasons for the hope that we profess. We are resolute in our commitment to ensuring this vision shines through in all our endeavors, underpinned by our steadfast trust in the providence and grace of God.
In Hosea 4:6, we read, ”My people are destroyed for the lack of knowledge”. This truth can be mapped to our churches today, where many Christians are on an emotional roller-coaster ride, and not caring enough to cater to the intellect. Our endeavour is to nurture a rational faith, especially among the young, and to train them in evidence-based Christianity.
The apostle Peter urges us in his first letter (3:15) to “be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have”. Apologetics is a very integral part of evangelism, and at The Carpenter’s Desk, we are driven by an aim to win the soul through the art of apologetics. In this, we are inspired by Paul’s words in II Corinthians 10:5, “We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ.”
Asher John unpacks the fascinating story of the Jews and the Samaritans- two neighbouring groups that were extremely hostile to each other in Jesus's day. What emerges is the only tried and tested cure for hate and communalism.
The Gospel Caravan represents a pioneering evangelistic endeavour by The Carpenter’s Desk, designed to deliver the message of the Gospel in a contextualized and relevant manner to contemporary society.
