Everett Ferguson is Distinguished Scholar in Residence at Abilene Christian University. He was editor of 'The Encyclopedia of Early Christianity' (2nd ed., 1997) and is author of many works including 'Early Christians Speak' (2 volumes 1999, 2002); 'Backgrounds of Early Christianity' (3rd ed., 2003); 'Inheriting Wisdom: Readings for Today from Ancient Christian Writers' (2004); 'Church History, vol. 1: From Christ to Pre-Reformation' (2005); and 'Baptism in the Early Church: History, Theology, and Liturgy in the First Five Centuries' (2009). Ferguson received the "Distinguished Service Award" from the North American Patristics Society (2008) and the "Vestigia Award for Excellence in Early Christian Studies and Service to the Church" from the Wheaton Center for Early Christian Studies (2002).

Over the years, Everett Ferguson has been a distinguished and prolific contributor to the study of early Christianity, and especially its liturgical practices. It is therefore gratifying to see some of his output collected in these two volumes [...] Characteristic of Professor Ferguson's traditional method of scholarship has been to subject the works of individual patristic authors or particular documents to extremely detailed study of wording, and to accompany his arguments with clear quotation of the sources on which they are based, making them easy to follow [...] It will form a useful addition to the bookshelves of anyone interested in serious study of these areas of early Christianity.
