I'm in the process of collecting my thoughts on early Church History at www.livejournal.com/users/radagast2/

It's a work in progress, but comments are most welcome.

One of my favorite sources on the early Church is Philip Hughes "History of the Church"

Here is a link to it online, it is huge but you should find some interesting material.

[Philip]

The first five Councils met in this time period.
Writing of the Nicean Creed.
Defense of the Deity of Christ by St Athanasius.
Defense of the Deity of the Holy Spirit.
Proper understanding of the the Holy Trinity put forth by Great Cappadocians.
