About the Author
Thomas C. Oden (PhD, Yale University), is the general editor of the Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture and the Ancient Christian Doctrine series as well as the author of Classic Christianity, a revision of his three-volume systematic theology. He is the director of the Center for Early African Christianity at Eastern University in Pennsylvania and he formerly served as the Henry Anson Buttz Professor of Theology at The Theological School of Drew University in Madison, New Jersey. Oden is active in the Confessing Movement in America, particularly within the United Methodist Church and is president of The Institute for Classical Christian Studies. He suggests that Christians need to rely upon the wisdom of the historical Church, particularly the early Church, rather than on modern scholarship and theology and says his mission is "to begin to prepare the postmodern Christian community for its third millennium by returning again to the careful study and respectful following of the central tradition of classical Christianity."
Review
"While designed for use during Lent, On the Way to the Cross provides valuable material for devotions any time of the year. Highly recommended for church libraries." (Carolyn Egolf, Congregational Libraries Today, Vol. XLVII, No. 1)
"Oden . . . and Elowsky have written a reliable guide for prayer in the ancient way of the church fathers." (Roy W. Howard, The Presbyterian Outlook, February 6, 2012)
"The reflections of the Church Fatthers are surprisingly relevant to life in our contemporary world. The insights are profound and can serve as motivation for additional thought, prayer, and meditation." (John Bernstein, CBA Retailers + Resources, December 2011)
