  • "This faith, if only you desire it, you can have."
    This letter, written by an anonymous author and addressed to a pagan named Diognetus, is not only a sublime example of Christian apologetics but also one of the most beautiful and exquisite works within all of early Christian literature.
    The translator describes its author as "an unnamed master of Greek style, a fervent Christian filled with Pauline convictions, a humanist who has achieved a remarkable harmony of supernatural faith and charity, with a highly cultivated intelligence, literary taste, conscience, and social sense. The calm and clarity of his thought reveal a master of logic, the deep convictions of a serious thinker, the eloquence of a trained rhetorician, the breadth of mind and warmth of heart, the poise of an educated gentleman.”
