The text brings us closer to understanding the work of the Fathers of the Church on issues that are central to the faith and that have great relevance. It links us to the Communities founded by the Apostles or their disciples. It raises the link between faith and life, the dialogue between faith and reason, faith and culture. The Fathers of the Church have had a rich mystical, literary, theological production. The author skillfully introduces us to the socio-cultural and religious context of each period in which these Pastors lived their faith and piloted the helm of their Church. This places us to better understand the meaning of some statements. Something that can undoubtedly enlighten us is the path they traveled to take on the challenges of their time and discern the appropriate answers. When approaching reading it is good to have a realistic perspective, away from an idyllic look.
