Lesson Transcript

To truly understand Christ, we must go to the primary sources, those closest to Him. We have the early church, men like Justin Martyr, Polycarp, Irenaeus, and many others who were taught by the apostles, link us directly back to the apostolic foundation. Why do the early church fathers matter? These early Christians lived in a generation or two of Christ. Their writings show a church marked by unity, holiness, courage, and virtue. They demonstrate what faith looks like when it is lived, not just professed.

Their witness is a bridge connecting us to the heart of the apostolic.
