Paperback. Condition: New. Faithful Defender: How Irenaeus Navigated a Pagan WorldJourney back to the second century with Steven O. Presley's illuminating biography of Irenaeus of Lyons, one of Christianity's most influential early theologians. Unlike later Christian leaders, Irenaeus never experienced the benefits of Christendom but instead forged his faith within a pagan Roman Empire surrounded by competing religious and philosophical systems.Discover how Irenaeus skillfully defended orthodox Christianity against Gnostic heresies while developing a robust theological system centered on the rule of faith. This accessible biography explores his vision of pastoral ministry, his understanding of the spiritual life, and his view of Christian citizenship within a hostile culture.Presley vividly portrays Irenaeus as the exemplary "spiritual disciple" who could discern truth from error while living an apologetic life of fortitude, holiness, and persuasive witness. In an age when Christians increasingly find themselves on the margins of Western culture, Irenaeus's example offers timely wisdom for faithfully engaging our post-Christian world with theological clarity and spiritual conviction.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 2025 Gospel Coalition Book Award (Theological Studies)Southwestern Journal of Theology 2025 Book Award (Honorable Mention, Theological Studies)Biblical Theology in the Life of the Early Church recasts biblical theology as a practice cultivated in Christian community rather than a solely academic pursuit. Stephen Presley argues that the early church fathers crafted an ecclesial biblical theology that was lived out communally and oriented believers toward beholding God's glory.This volume brings patristic biblical interpretation into conversation with contemporary biblical theology, exploring how assumptions and methods of figures such as Irenaeus and Augustine can guide modern hermeneutics. Presley shows how early Christian theologians emphasized virtue and discipleship alongside exegesis, patiently shaping readers to inhabit Scripture's narrative. He illuminates the catechetical and liturgical scaffolding that informed patristic biblical theology, centered on Christ as the cornerstone.Students and scholars of theology, church history, hermeneutics, and patristics will find valuable new insights. This book helps readers interested in biblical theology consider how the early church, from the apostolic fathers to Augustine, thought about the unity of Scripture.
