In The Bible and the Church Fathers, you will learn who the Early Church Fathers were and how they shaped the way, we read Scripture.
The Bible and the Church Fathers will teach you everything you need to know about how the Bible took form. You will learn powerful tools for reading it, and you will understand Scripture’s relationship to Tradition and, in particular, to the sacraments.
