"The Ancient Christian Doctrine series allows us to think with the church about the deepest issues of the Christian faith. Tom Oden and his colleagues have done a superb job in leading us to the wellspring of Christian wisdom in these classic expositions of the evangelical and apostolic tradition. A treasury of learning and faith for all followers of Jesus today."

"As a professor of systematic theology I often seek to connect the teaching of the current church to the teaching of the church fathers. Tom Oden has done us all a great service in giving us the Ancient Christian Doctrine series, a wonderful sequel to the very successful Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture. The current interest in the church fathers is a positive sign for me that many contemporary believers recognize that we must not be isolated in the twenty-first century from the faith once for all delivered to the saints (Jude 3), a faith that the fathers of the church sought to preserve and promulgate"

"With the help of this new series, I pray that the ecumenical creeds may lead us to honest discussion of the differences between Christians and Christian traditions, in the hope that Scripture itself may lead us to a godly unity in the mind of Christ."

"The editors are eminent scholars, with a formidable knowledge of their fields and a solid commitment to the theology of the Creed, and so readers may have confidence in their work. These volumes serve a valuable purpose, and may stimulate some to deeper study of the sources."
