What is Missionary methods : St. Paul's or ours? about?

179 pages ; 22 cm 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 Companion volume to the author's The spontaneous expansion of the church Foreword / Lesslie Newbigin -- Publisher's foreword -- Author's preface -- Part 1 : Antecedent conditions.
