Christopher A. Hall (PhD, Drew University) is the president of Renovaré. He is associate editor of the Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture, and his books include Reading Scripture with the Church Fathers, Learning Theology with the Church Fathers, and Worshiping with the Church Fathers. Hall previously served at Eastern University for over twenty years in several roles, including chancellor, provost, dean of Palmer Seminary, dean of the Templeton Honors College, distinguished professor of theology, and director of academic spiritual formation. He and his wife, Debbie, live in Pennsylvania and have three grown children.
. . .an accessible introduction to both the Church Fathers and
their exegesis. [O]verall this is a solid introduction to some of
the major Church Fathers of the East and West. I believe that
anyone interested in Patristic exegesis would do well to begin with
this volume.
