Ralph D. Walters in 2005 was named by the Time magazine as one of the 25 most influential evangelicals in America.
Dr. Ray Tallman in 2010 said he perhaps was the most influential persons in missions of the last 50 years and has influenced missions globally more than anyone I can think of.
It was during the 10 years whilst working as a missionary in Guatemala (1956-1966) that he developed and spearheaded the first Theological Education Extension (TEE) programme. This was a precursor for the modern theological distance programmes and the multi- campus models used today by schools and seminaries. It would allow ministers to improve their education without having to relocate. They would be able to study at extension campuses near their own town or village.
He was called a missiologist - he was a strategist, of the highest order. who studied how to improve the function of the Christian Church.
