We are talking today of indigenous churches. St. Paul's churches were indigenous churches in the proper sense of the word; and I believe that the secret of their foundation lay in his recognition of the church as a local church (as opposed to our "national churches") and in his profound belief and trust in the Holy Spirit indwelling his converts and the churches of which they were members, which enabled him to establish them at once with full authority. - Author's preface to the second (1927) edition

The book offers a radical critique of traditional Western missionary methods, advocating for biblical principles that are increasingly relevant today. Written in 1912, it challenges conventional practices and emphasizes adaptable strategies for mission work. While focused on missionary efforts, the principles discussed extend beyond cross-cultural missions, making it applicable to various contexts and encouraging innovative approaches within ministry.
