Pleasantly surprised - on my reread list!

I bought this book years ago because it was required for a church history class. Honestly, I wasn't excited about reading it (and I love reading!). I don't know why, but I thought it would be overly academic and stuffy. Wrong! Clear, concise, and highly readable. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I thought I'd be selling this book after my class to try and make a few dollars, but this one definitely in my book collection. More than that, it's on the re-read list. Great overview of, well, early Christian thought. :)
