This book asks why the earliest Christian thinkers thought that it mattered what we believe about God. By examining the writings of Irenaeus, one of the first Christian theologians, it shows that for him, what Christians believe matters because beliefs are inseparable from emotions, and both beliefs and emotions dictate one's actions.
