I asked him once when he first met you. He said, gesturing a bit wildly with his arms, “David, just… appeared!”

I consider his book The Spirit of Early Christian Thought a masterpiece. May his memory be eternal! And may God comfort you in your grief.

Thank you for this.

The Spirit of Early Christian Thought (2005) was important for me.

I'm so sorry to hear this. This past year I really enjoyed The Myth of Christian Beginnings, which I found to be an enriching and affirming companion to Tradition and Apocalypse.

He’s been a great influence to many, and will live on within many. Life hasn’t ended, merely changed. My condolences.
