4-Church History: The Patristic Period,pt1

McGrath in HISTORICAL THEOLOGY states, "The patristic period is one of the most exciting and creative periods in the history of Christian thought...Every mainstream Christian body--including the Anglican, Eastern Orthodox, Lutheran, Reformed and Roman Catholic churches--regards the patristic period as a definitive landmark in the development of Christian doctrine. Each of these churches regards themselves as continuing, extending and, where necessary, criticizing the views of the early-church writers." Having covered the 1st century church in our last lesson, join us Wednesday as we begin looking at "The Patristic Period, pt1: The Disciples of the Apostles".
