Words of advice from Lesslie Newbigin
"Don't imagine," the missionary will be told, "that you are going to take God into the [country, city, people-group]. He is there already. He has been at work there long before you came on the scene and he will be there after you have gone. Your job is to learn what he is doing in the world which is already his, not to introduce him to a world from which he is absent" (Open Secret, 1995:67).
