We remember the Fathers of the Church for their holiness, their wisdom, and their courage to proclaim the truth in an age in which the Church was beset by heresy from within and by persecution from without.

Christians today can draw inspiration from the Fathers, whose willingness to suffer exile, imprisonment, and martyrdom for the truth laid the foundations for the Christian Age.

All Catholics who want to know and defend the Faith need to learn about the time of the apostles and the Fathers, for it is in these ages that the Trinitarian, Christological, and Marian doctrines are defined, the structure and operation of Christ’s Church matures, and the form of Eucharistic worship takes shape.

To deepen your knowledge of this exciting time in Christian history, join these talks from Catholic Answers apologists along with special guest speakers from our 2019 conference, The Early Church Was the Catholic Church. — Add to Cart

Some Protestant writers have claimed not only that major Catholic doctrines were unknown in the early Church but that the ultimate authority for the first Christians was Scripture alone.

But what does the evidence say?

We’re familiar with the apostles and the authors of the New Testament, but how many of us know the apostolic Fathers?

They were the Christian leaders who followed immediately the age of the apostles, and many of them knew and interacted with Jesus’ original disciples.

Who were they, why are they important to our Faith, and what startling revelations are contained in their writings? — Add to Cart

If we jumped into a time machine, traveled back to the first centuries of the Church, and asked Christians what they believed about the seven sacraments, would we feel we were among Catholic brethren?

Karlo says yes, and he shows, using the writings of the early Fathers, that their belief regarding the sacraments is the same belief the Catholic Church professes today. — Add to Cart

When Catholic and Protestants discuss Scripture, the conversation can degenerate into “my interpretation” versus “your interpretation.”

When such debates fail, it might be time for historical apologetics. A common anti-Catholic narrative posits that early in the life of the Church a “great apostasy” took place.

Authentic Christianity, the narrative goes, was restored only sixteen or more centuries later.

Does this account of an early falling away from New Testament Christianity bear the scrutiny of history, archeology, and sociology? — Add to Cart

Using some of the earliest Christian writings as well as modern Church documents, Tim Staples shows the “organic connection between our spiritual life and the dogmas” (Catechism 89) and that Mary “unites in her person and re-echoes the most important doctrines of the Faith” (Lumen Gentium 65). He brings to light the axiom “No Mary, No Jesus; Know Mary, Know Jesus” as exemplified by this most ancient Marian dogma. — Add to Cart

Taking from Athanasius, Augustine, and the Cappadocian Fathers, as well as the magisterial teaching of the Catechism, Fr. Meconi helps us see how profound a share in the divine life we possess.

The great teachers of the Faith have not hesitated to call this mystery of our share in the divine life through Christ “deification” or “becoming God by grace.” — Add to Cart

The apostles preached and preserved the Faith they received from Jesus.

This is the story of what happened next.

In The Very First Fathers, Jimmy Akin (author of the best-selling book The Fathers Know Best) takes you on a tour of the earliest Christian writings outside the New Testament. From the most famous figures and most notable works to those lesser-known but no less important, this pivotal time in the development of the early Church is revealed in fascinating detail.

Jimmy shows how, even in the first century after the Resurrection, it was necessary to defend and explain truths that are still under attack today, such as the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist and the perpetual virginity of Mary. The Very First Fathers is thus not only a compelling look at the dawn of the Christian age—it’s edifying listening for anyone who wants to understand and defend the full truth of Catholicism. — Add to Cart
