Christianity and Intellectual Inquiry examines the many ways that Christians, past and present, have tried to make sense of themselves and the world around them, weaving together an intellectual and epistemological history of Christianity in America. The book introduces the concept of pilgrimage as a metaphor that describes intellectual inquiry as an open-ended search for truth that is in steady dialogue with others.
