January Explanation Station from St. John Adult Faith Formation

January Explanation Station from St. John Adult Faith Formation

The Fathers of the Church

If you aren’t familiar with the early Church Fathers, you may want to do some research on their inspiring lives. The Church Fathers were influential theologians, bishops or scholars whose writings explained key Scriptural principles in the early Church. They were not all ordained, and not all of them became saints.

But they had powerful communication skills, personal holiness and doctrinal orthodoxy, so we honor them unofficially as “fathers” for their proximity to the Apostles, their explanations of how to understand and apply Scripture, and their ability to teach the Catholic faith.

Studying the early Church Fathers has deepened the faith lives of many, even to the point of convincing non-Catholics to become Catholic.
