Resources on Athanasius
Last night I recommended a series of books on the life of Athanasius and church history in general. Let me encourage you pick them up and enjoy some great reading!
- Nicene and Post Nicene Fathers: Second Series Volume IV Anthanasius: Selects Works and Letters – Edited by Philip Schaff, the definite collection of the Works of Athanasius in the English language
- For Us and for Our Salvation: The Doctrine of Christ in the Early Church
- by Stephen J. Nichols. A great “pop history” of the first 5 centuries of Christianity and their defense of the person and work of Christ.
- Contending for Our All: Defending Truth and Treasuring Christ in the Lives of Athanasius, John Owen, and J. Gresham Machen (The Swans Are Not Silent, Book 4) – by John Piper. A great overall summary and application of the life of Athanasius and others! Highly recommended.
- Turning Points: Decisive Moments in the History of Christianity
– by Mark Noll. A great summary of Church history and the decisive moments in Christianity.
