Getting to Know the Church Fathers
A Trusted Introduction to the Church Fathers
This concise introduction to the church fathers connects evangelical
students and readers to twelve key figures from the early church. Bryan Litfin
engages readers with actual people, not just abstract doctrines or impersonal
events, to help them understand the fathers as spiritual ancestors in the
faith. The first edition has been well received and widely used. This updated
and revised edition adds chapters on Ephrem of Syria and Patrick of Ireland.
The book requires no previous knowledge of the patristic period and includes
original, easy-to-read translations that give a brief taste of each
writer´s thought.
