Indian Christianity is a diverse tradition with roots dating back to ancient times, traditionally believed to have been established by the Apostle Thomas in the 1st century. It comprises various denominations such as Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, and indigenous groups like the Indian Christian communities in Kerala. Indian Christianity blends local customs, languages, and cultural practices with Christian doctrines, resulting in unique liturgies and practices.
