MY STORY

Growing up in a pastoral family in Andhra Pradesh, India, ministry has always been part of my life. From a young age, I watched my parents serve churches, train believers, and share the gospel in villages where many people had never heard about Christ. Through those experiences, God placed in me a deep burden for unreached communities, persecuted believers, and the need for strong biblical leadership in rural India.

​

Over the years, God also developed in me a passion for storytelling, pastoral training, and discipleship. I have seen how story-based theological training helps pastors and church planters understand Scripture more deeply and communicate the gospel effectively within their own communities and cultures.

​

I completed my Master of Divinity (M.Div) in India and recently, I completed my Master of Theology (Th.M.) degree at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in the United States. Through this season, God connected me with Heart Bible for the Nations, the ministry I now serve with in India through training pastors, leadership development, church planting movements, mentoring leaders, supporting translation efforts, and engaging in outreach ministry.

​

Currently, we are conducting pastoral training modules in places such as Chhattisgarh (intensely persecuted) and Machilipatnam, with plans to expand into additional regions like Kurnool and beyond. Many of these areas face persecution. Many pastors have been killed or have lost their loved ones. I have even had life threatening gun point experiences by extremists for spreading the Gospel. These areas also face limited theological resources and face poverty – lack even basic resources such as proper water, food, bathroom, or training opportunities. 

​

Our goal is to bring God’s word into these places by helping people grow invisible bibles in their hearts - equipping pastors and leaders to learn, tell, and teach God’s stories faithfully and establish healthy church-planting movements throughout India especially where they cannot carry or read Bibles.

​

Heart Bible for the Nations is impacting many nations around the world by equipping believers to internalize and multiply Scripture. Through this movement, thousands are being trained to become “walking Bibles,” carrying God’s Word in their hearts and sharing it with others.

As I prepare to return permanently to India, I realize how much I need prayer and partnership. I do not want to depend on my own strength or abilities, but on God’s guidance and provision. My desire is to faithfully serve the Lord, equip leaders, and help bring the hope of the gospel to places where Christ is not yet known.
