<br/><br/> Kelly Monroe presents the testimonies of forty-two faculty members, former students, and distinguished orators at Harvard. Their candid reflections convincingly refute the claim that Christian faith cannot survive a rigorous intellectual atmosphere. The challenge of reconciling a personal encounter with Truth within the academic community is plainly illustrated.
