First sentence: Theological reflection in the first four centuries was driven by three major forces: the need to defend the faith and the community from outside critique or attack, the need to articuIate an acceptable understanding of "being Christian" against distortions from within the Christian community, and the desire to think through more fully the implications of Christian faith.
