What Next in Home Missions is an insightful exploration of the evolving landscape of Christian missionary work within the United States during the early 20th century. Written by William P. Shriver, a prominent advocate for the social application of the gospel, this work addresses the shifting social, economic, and religious challenges facing the American church in the late 1920s. Shriver examines the transition from traditional frontier evangelism to a more comprehensive approach that includes social service, community engagement, and the integration of diverse populations into the fabric of religious life.

The book serves as both a strategic roadmap and a call to action for religious leaders and laypeople alike. It delves into the specific needs of burgeoning urban environments, industrial centers, and rural communities, emphasizing the importance of adaptability and social responsibility in missionary efforts. By analyzing the successes and failures of past endeavors, Shriver provides a visionary perspective on how home missions can remain relevant in a rapidly changing modern world.
