Pope Benedict XVI The Fathers of the Church exhorted believers in the face of persecution while fighting heresies and misunderstandings. They were theologians and philosophers, orators and pastors, leaders and problem solvers, martyrs and heroes. This is a great book for those who would like to be introduced to both the East and West Fathers of the Church. Pope Benedict XVI gives a brief (3 to 4 pages) of salient life points of these Fathers who were closest to the Apostles and therefore, to Christ Himself. He also encourages us to imitate them. They are a great source not only of inspiration but of how and who the Christian is and ought to live. There faith is exemplary as much as challenging. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
At his Wednesday audiences during 2007 and 2008 Pope Benedict XVI gave a series of short talks on the Fathers of the Church. He devoted himself not only to such famous and influential Fathers as Augustine and John Chrysostom but also to figures not venerated as saints; one subject, Tertullian, even died outside the Catholic communion. This volume contains thirty-six of these inspirational teachings. In these catecheses the Pope is not delivering academic lectures or preaching sermons. Rather, he is instructing Christian believers who want to have their faith confirmed and strengthened. Pope Benedict firmly believes that the Fathers of the Church still speak powerfully today, and his accessible presentations will make many readers eager to look further into the writings of these great early Christians.
