Description
"Arjan Singh. He was a Sikh and still has his hair long. This is probably because he hasn't told his family that he has become a Christian. Arjan was baptized some time ago and after a while stopped coming to church at all. Now he has started attending again part of the time. He is going through a bad stage in his life and kind of wants to be a tough guy and runs around with some bad characters once in a while. Really he's very shy and quiet so he's having a hard time growing up." Arjan Singh, a Sikh-Christian who joined the Church of Christ in the Malaysian state of Penang, planted by Kenneth Sinclair, American missionary from Churches of Christ.
