Understanding this quote

The speaker argues that, taken broadly, the Indian Church has not developed a theology that is recognisably its own and that connects with ordinary people both intellectually and emotionally. “Reaching the minds and hearts” means making religious ideas understandable, meaningful, and personally compelling, rather than leaving them distant or disconnected from people’s lives.
