This new volume appears to be a welcomed addition to story telling of twentieth century evangelicalism.
There are very few figures as large as John Stott and J.I. Packer for understanding the advancement of twentieth century evangelicalism in the Reformed tradition. To be sure, neither of these men are perfect, and certainly made decisions which were significant mistakes in their ministries. But, then again, so have I! And so have we all. So, without judging self righteously, let us thank God for all these men have done and enjoy learning more about them! Let us learn, humbly, from their accomplishments as well as their errors.
I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naïve. (Romans 16:17-18)
