John Robb ~ “… lack of cooperation and collaboration … the major hindrance to world evangelization”

David Barrett and James Reapsome in their book, Seven Hundred Plans to Evangelize the World, identified lack of cooperation and collaboration between Christian organizations as the major hindrance to world evangelization. They write that two-thirds of all global evangelization plans are stand-alone, self-sufficient plans, each viewing itself as at the center of world evangelization. They estimate that 96 percent of all global evangelization plans ignore or write off all other Christian traditions with which they are not like-minded and only four percent seek to network or connect meaningfully with those of other Christian traditions. Their conclusion is:

“The absence of any network is catastrophic. It is probably the major single cause of the fiasco of today’s unevangelized world… largely untouched from one year to the next.”
