Focusing on the transformative ideas of Roland Allen, this work explores his revolutionary approach to missionary governance in the early 20th century. Allen, who served in North China and East Africa, advocated for empowering indigenous communities to lead and financially support their own churches, challenging colonial and paternalistic practices. His emphasis on local prayer and community experiences diminished the reliance on hierarchical church structures, positioning him as a prophetic figure in missionary theory.
