| Summary | "Home Missions in Action" by Edith H. Allen is a historical account written in the early 20th century, reflecting on the role of the Christian church in addressing social issues and uplifting communities in the United States. The book emphasizes the responsibilities of Home Missions to respond to the spiritual and social needs of various populations across the nation, focusing on aspects like education, social justice, and community service. The beginning of "Home Missions in Action" introduces the reader to the context surrounding the original mission of the church and the redefined purpose that arose from the global events of its time, particularly the Great War. It discusses how Home Missions has historically influenced American ideals and institutions, shaping both individual lives and national character. The text underscores the church's duty to engage deeply with social conditions, advocating for a holistic approach that includes improving community life alongside individual spiritual salvation. By highlighting specific examples, such as early frontier missions and the church's response to marginalized groups, the opening sets the stage for exploring how these missions have sought to reclaim, educate, heal, and integrate diverse peoples into a cohesive nation.
