"New Evangelicalism: Its History, Characteristics and Fruit" by Dr. David Cloud is an outstanding and informative book. The information in the book contains many time bound facts (names and dates and events relative to the "neo-evangelicalism" movement or spirit, with an excellent treatment on Billy Graham) but it also contains many Scriptural truths and timeless principles refuting the compromise of the aforementioned phenomenon. Prepare to be enlightened by Dr. Cloud's careful observations and virtually impeccable reporting. This book is well documented and much needed to provide us with a truthful context to the current trends in Christendom coming from a staunch independent Baptist fundamentalist. It takes a whole lot of courage and wisdom to do what Bro. Cloud is doing for the Lord's people in these "last days."
