In this text, Cho delineates the role of the lay leader. He argues that the professional clergy cannot effectively pastor thousands; the burden must be shared. By empowering laypersons to lead home cells, the church taps into the "priesthood of all believers." This methodology reframes "numbers" not as cold statistics, but as networks of relationships.
