Hello everyone! My name is Matthew Dotson. I've been blind since birth, and have been a Christian for a few years now. A few years ago I started researching the writings of the early Church, and I came across the YouTube channel Post-Apostolic Church and some clips of David Bercot's teachings. Recently I wanted to study and practice the traditions and teachings of the early Christians; and David's book, A Dictionary of Early Christian Beliefs, his teachings, and the writings of the early Christians themselves have changed my opinions on certain beliefs that I once held. Can anyone overlook the fact that Polycarp, the direct student of the apostles, said that the apostles celebrated Easter on the 14th of Nisan? Or can we overlook the fact that the earliest Christians believed that the Eucharist was the body and blood of Christ? Polycarp doesn's rebuke his friend Ignatius for believing this way; nor does any other genuine Christian writers of that period. I have now begun learning to read Ancient Greek, and I can truly say that learning to read it in braille has been a beautiful experience! Reading the Septuagint, the New Testament, and the letter of Clement to the Corinthians in the language of our brothers and sisters in Christ of old is an experience that is rewarding beyond compare. When I found out that David Bercot had made the materials on this website free, I knew I had to become a member. His work has truly been a blessing to me and to so many others, and I hope that God will bless him and all who seek the truth of the wisdom of the ancients. God Bless, Matthew
