God in Patristic Thought by G. L. Prestige is a classic work of Christian theology that explores how the early Church Fathers understood and articulated the concept of God. The book offers a clear and scholarly examination of the development of theological ideas during the formative centuries of Christianity.
Prestige focuses on key doctrines such as the nature of the Trinity, the relationship between the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and the meaning of divine substance and personhood. Drawing on the writings of influential thinkers like Athanasius of Alexandria and Gregory of Nazianzus, he explains how early theologians shaped orthodox Christian belief in response to doctrinal controversies.
