St. Athanasius Knihy
Athanasius Alexandrijský byl vlivný křesťanský teolog a církevní otec, který se stal klíčovou postavou v obraně trinitarianismu proti ariánství. Jeho spisy vykazují hlubokou oddanost Vtělenému Slovu, velký pastorační zájem a hluboký zájem o mnišství. Zásadní roli sehrál na Prvním nikajském koncilu a po zbytek života vedl teologické a politické boje proti ariánům. Je považován za „pilíř církve“ a „otce pravoslaví“, jehož díla byla oceňována napříč Východem i Západem.

This selection of early saints' lives, full of vivid incidents and astonishing miracles, consists of classics of hagiography that were all written in the second half of the 4th century.
SAINT ATHANASIUS was an astute apologist, proficient theologian, and champion of orthodox Christology. He earned the title Athanasius Contra Mundum for his willingness to take on the world in defending biblical truth. One of his most influential works, On the Incarnation , was written as an apologetic for the doctrine of the eternal Son of God taking to himself, without ceasing to be God, full humanity for the purpose of the Father's glory and our salvation. This classic has since inspired generations towards defending biblical truth. The Celebration of Faith Series, conceived by Series Editor Steven R. Martins, reflects on the lives and contributions of those who have been touched by the grace of God, those who have professed, defended and advanced the Christian religious worldview throughout history. The objective of this series is to inspire and encourage grace-bought believers towards living out their faith in such a way that demonstrates the truth, beauty and liberty of the gospel and its comprehensive nature for the furtherance of God's kingdom.
