Welcome to the first "meeting" of our little reading group here in the Patristics forum!
As discussed in this thread, we've decided to start with reading Athanasius: The Incarnation of the Word of God.
There will be a new thread every week, with a link in the old thread to make sure nobody gets lost. Usually, we'll start on Monday, but since I have to be out of town tomorrow, I'm posting this tonight.
We agreed to start by reading the first two chapters. I suggest that we start by discussing the first chapter, and see how that goes, before we get into the second one.
Please post:
* Your questions
* Your comments
* Anything you'd like to share (or ask) about Athanasius, his life, or the church during his time
* Suggestions on how we can best facilitate discussion
All are welcome to participate. At this point, I'm leaving it pretty open-ended, hoping that we can all contribute some questions for discussion and thought.
Thanks for joining us!
