Book Review: God In The Wasteland

INTRODUCTION
Dr. David Falconer Wells was born in 1939. He is elevated Senior Research Professor at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. He is a Council member of the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals. He is also co-signer of The Cambridge Declaration, which came virtually in 1996, due to his 1993 book No Place for Truth, or Whatever Happened to Evangelical theology?
