DESCRIPTION

“Readers will come away strengthened in their faith and in their ability to use the mind faithfully for the service of God. Read, ponder, and read again.” - Mark A. Noll 

In 1980, Dr. Charles Malik gave a memorable and poignant address at the dedication of the Billy Graham Center on the campus of Wheaton College. He presented a challenge in two tasks: save the soul and save the mind. Malik believed that in order to evangelize the academic world, evangelism must learn to speak at an academic level. He called people to raise their level of thinking and sharpen their minds to this end.

In this book several contributors seek to apply this message to our current context. It is a call to academics especially to integrate Christian faith with their disciplines and to be intellectual in their faith for the purpose of communicating at the level of their peers and students.

“This is a wake-up call that should be read by all Christians interested in the world of ideas and apprenticeship to the Lord Jesus.” - J.P Moreland
