"[By] Roland Allen".
"With a Foreword by Sir Kenneth Grubb".
"It is only gradually that Roland Allen's 'Spontaneous Expansion of the Church' has established its reputation among those who are concerned with the mission of the Church. This is odd since it is in many ways both a more mature work than 'Missionary Methods: St. Paul's or Ours ?' and also more relevant to the particular tasks with which the churches and mission have to wrestle today. .... He bids us beware, for example, of the growth of nationalism, pointing out that it may make the position of any foreigner difficult. He points the same lesson when he deals with the organization of the Church itself and asks how long the Christians of the land will tolerate the foreign missionary as the guardian of their spiritualities. Allen saw all these things as conditions which ought to be met and faced before they became acute; now that they are obvious all can see them, but not all are ready to say what should be done about them, for they are largely out of our control. Allen had a theory of missions and of the development of the Church which enabled him to face this kind of probable future without misgivings. One wonders -- indeed it would be fascinating to know -- what he would have said about such a major transformation as the Communist regime in China". -- Foreword, p. v.
