The Doctors of the Church (2 vols.)

Study the development of Catholicism through the lives of the Doctors of the Church. In this two-volume series, John Fink presents brief profiles of the life of each Doctor followed by one or more writings characteristic of his or her work. The excerpts chosen are representative of the particular Doctor’s writings, and are also selected in such a way as to give an overview of Christian doctrine and practice through the centuries. From Saint Athanasius to Thérèse of Lisieux, you’ll find a wealth of inspiration and wisdom from the Doctors of the Church.
