About the Author/Artist
By Pope Benedict XVI
St. Leo the Great ... St. Gregory the Great ... St. Maximus the Confessor ... Bede, the Venerable ... St. Boniface ... St. Theodore the Studite ... St. Peter Damien ... Peter the Venerable ... and more.
These illustrious Church Fathers are the first and second generations of the Church, following the Apostles. It is upon their backs that the Church s journey through history is established and solidified.
By defending the newborn Christianity to the point of death and explaining the content of the Faith in a language understandable to the faithful, the Apostolic Fathers created a timeless anchor of faith that extends through the challenges of today.
From St. Leo the Great through St. Maximus the Confessor through Peter the Venerable and St. Bernard, 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.
In Volume II of this popular series of papal talks on the Fathers of the Church, Pope Benedict carefully explains their rich history and the vital role each one played not only in preserving the Church at the time, but also in anchoring the Church of today as well as the future.
Binding: Hardcover
Pages: 208
Born in 1927 in Germany as Joseph Ratzinger, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI was head of the Roman Catholic Church from April 2005 until his resignation in February 2013. A prolific author, theologian and university professor, Ratzinger served as an "expert" at the Second Vatican Council, and was tapped in 1977 by Pope Paul VI to lead the German Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. In 1981, Blessed Pope John Paul II called him to Rome to head the Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, where he served until his papal election.
