Query: This is a Christian classic

This is a lyrical book an amazing book. I have read it and re-read it serveral times. I never travel without this book and my bible. Some of the arguments in this book I sensed dimly or indirectly before I read the book but this book as other reviewers have said, makes one realize what can still be learned by these early church fathers, partularly St. Augustine and Thomas Aquinas. Wilken has the learned authority of a C.S. Lewis and the faith of a Thomas Merton. This is a book that will be read and studied one hundred years from now and probably beyond that. I can't imagine a a better book on this subject being written in this century.Most importanly THE SPIRIT OF EARLY CHRISTIAN THOUGHT:Seeking the Face of God is an antidote to the moral confusion of our time which thinks pure reason is sufficient and that there is no such thing as legitimate authority.
