Very interesting post, thanks.

Evangelizing the First Wave is an amazing story of the Church when the (a) world was crumbling; Evangelizing the Second Wave gives great hope as our world now seems crumbling.

And the key role of contemplative/missionaries, prayer:

‘Prayer is fundamental for evangelization because “Christian preaching is not primarily a communication of doctrine but of existence.” He evangelizes more who prays without speaking than he who speaks without praying.’
