“Jesus became what we are, so that we might become what He is” – St Athanasius.
These wise words form the basis of this book. As well as St. Athanasius’ amazing mind, the foundation of this book, is to show readers what Jesus is like – and how we should behave.
Every section has a scripture verse to learn, along with a brief explanation on taught humility, purity, generosity and respect.
Labelled as the “Father of Orthodoxy”, St. Athanasius’ defence of the Christology, described in the first chapter of St. John’s Holy Gospel; further exemplifies how Christian principles became eternal, life-changing values in this current Era. It is the hope that learning about the incarnation of God, will inspire readers to develop a living, vital and honest relationship with God.
Such an outcome, opens the door for people to grow deeper in knowledge; and thereby love, for the One who is always good – God.
There is nothing like learning more about early church fathers. To think that Christianity remained stagnant following the death of the first disciples leaves so much misunderstood and unanswered. To study the Fathers is to study the ongoing life of soon to be Saints, as well as early Christian life itself.
This book is my favourite book. It is an important book in Christianity. I have learned a lot from reading this book. Thanks for helping me increase my faith. Maria, you are always so nice and eloquent in your writing. God bless you.
