E-2 &E-3 IS the Missionary Task to Unreached People. Don’t let the National Church restrain your Advancement

“Tough as this fourth category (E-2 or E-3) of growth is—it is the classical missionary task—it must be pointed out that all of our preceding charts suggest nothing less than that this task and technique is crucial for the reaching of at least 80 percent of the non-Christian world in Africa and Asia. But this is what we must do! Alas, how many missionaries are content to “let the- nationals do it” in a social unit already penetrated. Meanwhile, overlooking pockets and strata in the same field which the nationals are not as able to reach as the foreign missionary! This is especially true when the “National Church” unconsciously restricts the missionary to the limitations of its own immediate vision”
