Theological Research and Communication Institute

Integrated Response & Transformative Engagements through Theological Reflections

TRACI, a Christian Research Community, emerged from a deep desire to communicate theological perspectives on contemporary issues for the flourishing of the church and society in India. The founding members envisioned TRACI as a center for the study and research of Christian beliefs, practices, and community life in Indian society. Their early writings and publications reflect their dedicated labor of love. Over five decades, TRACI has worked to uphold and renew this vision.

The past decade, in particular, has seen efforts to align with the original vision while staying relevant to current times. We respect our past, thanking God for those who have faithfully carried TRACI’s vision. We strive to understand contemporary events and remain open to God’s guidance through His Word.

Key focus areas for TRACI include integral mission, gender equality, and society and polity. These will be continually discussed, researched, and integrated with theological reflections.

We aim to collaborate with the Church and mission movements, seeking your support and prayers to impact both the Church and society in India and beyond.

Edited by Raaj Mondol

Five thought-provoking essays that confront the realities of faith and society in India today including urgent calls to address mental health concerns in the workplace and compassionate responses to dementia. The volume also contains a heartfelt tribute to Pope Francis as a global voice of hope and peace. The essays celebrate the prophetic power of music and songwriting in Christian mission, and closes with a profound reflection on the Biblical view of Mystery. Together, these essays invite readers to remember, reconcile and renew – engaging Scripture and faith with the pressing concerns of our time, and inspiring the Church to embody hope, justice, and compassion in a complex world.
