Today I made a new connection. In Dr. Winter’s 1974 address at the Lausanne Congress he was emphasizing the type of evangelism most neededthen (and now) – cross-cultural evangelism. He was not so much focusing on unreached people groups. These folks were unreached precisely because of the lack of cross-cultural evangelism. That was his whole [...]
