<DIV>If the word <I>trinity </I>isn&rsquo;t in Scripture, why is it such an important part of our faith?<BR /> And if the Bible can be interpreted in many ways, how do we know what to make<BR /> of it? And who decided what should be in the Bible anyway?<BR /><BR /> The Church Fathers provide the answers. These brilliant, embattled, and<BR /> sometimes eccentric men defined the biblical canon, hammered out the Creed,<BR /> and gave us our understanding of sacraments and salvation. It is they who<BR /> preserved for us the rich legacy of the early Church.<BR /><BR /> D&rsquo;Ambrosio dusts off the dry theology and brings you the exciting stories and<BR /> great heroes such as Ambrose, Augustine, Basil, Athanasius, Chrysostom, and<BR /> Jerome. This page-turner will inspire and challenge you with the lives and<BR /> insights of these seminal teachers from when the Church was young.<BR /><BR />  </DIV>
