This collection of essays expresses and represents basic thought and teaching on the theology, the life, and the praxis of the Fathers of the Church in the Orthodox Tradition. According to Bebis, "in studying their works and contemplating their lives, one can see the impact that Christ had upon them and the liberating power of the Holy Spirit upon every aspect of their thought and endeavor."
George S. Bebis is Professor of Patrology at Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology, Brookline, Massachusetts.
