Summary

Back in their secret underground bunker, the spin team phone up David Wells to discuss his body of work and his huge contributions to modern Christianity. As a turncoat, a self-described "African-American," David has a unique experience and insight into American Christianity. David's voice has carried a lot of weight for much of evangelicalism, and he discusses issues related to this movement. Does evangelicalism have a center, a true coherence, anymore? Is it possible to have one again? David's Wells' input on this timely conversation is beneficial both for those who profess to be evangelical, and for those who don't. The week the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals would like to give away a free copy of David Wells new book God in the Whirlwind. For a chance to win this great resource fillout this form (only available for USA mailing addresses).

1:01.5	is unacceptable.
1:03.2	Of course, my wife, you know, she keeps a gun rack in the back of our truck now that we live in Virginia,
