Learning from the Ancients
On this blog, my aim will be to post a short essay on the Christian life that draws upon ancient Christianity. What do I mean by "ancient Christianity?" My effort will be to learn from Christians in the first several centuries of the Church--say, through the 400s. While I will endeavor to read original works, I may rely on other figures throughout the history of the Church who took these foundational Christians seriously--Wesley, Luther, Calvin, and others.
If I am to listen well to the ancient Christians, I will not be able to post often. But I will point to posts on this blog from my "Guy's Mental Wanderings" blog.
I desire to drink deeply from the well of Christian Tradition, to learn from those that have gone before, and I invite you to walk with me on the journey.
