Athanasius of Alexandria

History & Biography

“Lois Farag has written a succinct yet insightful ‘companion’ to the life, writings, and theology of Athanasius informed by the latest scholarship. Her introduction is very accessible, focusing on Athanasius as a theologian and spiritual mentor above all. She walks the reader through Athanasius’s own writings, highlighting the main themes of his thought and explaining these in a clear, straightforward manner. One comes away from this fine introduction with a good sense of who Athanasius was as a theologian and spiritual mentor and ready to read the writings of the great saint himself.”

One Path For All

Theology

“The late Rowan Greer has gifted us with a final fruit of decades of pondering the thought of Gregory of Nyssa. Through sensitive translations of a selection of the fourth-century church father's works and interpretive essays that combine vigorous scholarship and spiritual insight, Greer highlights Gregory's vision of the eschatological thrust of the path of Christian discipleship to which all Christians are called by virtue of their baptism. Greer has made Gregory an accessible guide for modern Christians.”
