From the guy who came up with the three self principles of missionary church planting (self-propogating, self-supporting, self-governing), here is a short book (100 pgs) that lays out some really Biblical but really practical and realistic advice for missionaries who are trying to establish churches in a culture without a Christian background. There is a helpful section at the end that has advice for new missionaries, concerning language study, when to start a new work, balancing your time and so forth. Nevius is concise, straightforward, and Biblical, not getting bogged down with unnecessary academic discussion or man-centered strategies that focus on making people like you rather than getting on with the work of sharing the Gospel.
