We opine with D. JAMES KENNEDY ( 1970) that there is something new in the life of the Christian Church of the contemporary time. It is the "Evangelism Explosion". It is also a truism that the world is experiencing "Population Explosion" which entails that the world is being populated far beyond man's widest imagination. It has even become a popular belief that the population of the world has been increasing at a far greater rate than the Church. In this type of scenario, something is certainly wrong. The Church should be able to breach the gap between her and the world if the Church is to actualize her mission.
