One of the masterpieces of Charles Malik (1906-1987) is his book A Christian Critique of the University, which is an insightful criticism of the university, claiming that the critic is not the author but Jesus Christ himself. Academia is about the truth, and Jesus Christ is the eternal truth, yet more often than not, the more scientific and philosophical truth a scholar acquires, the more alienated Christ and Christianity seem to become. In his final chapter, Malik offers a practical initiative to resolve this dilemma as he is one such author who lives not on ivory towers, but is grafted with practice.
