Publisher's summary

Glory to God for the men of old who endured the persecutions of this world with joy and faith. Much can be learned from those who have looked death in the face and yet remained true to the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.

Polycarp was such a man who learned from the great apostle John. Even under the threat of death, he remained true to his beloved bridegroom, Jesus Christ, who is blessed forever, amen!

Even today, some 2000 years later, we have his own words and are able to learn from his wisdom. May you be blessed as you listen to this book. Amen.

It’s hard to deny the testimony of men and women so close to the time of Christ. Hard to deny Christ with such original and historical texts.

Absolutely indescribable,

absolutely touching, just wow. To hear Polycarp's Christology, Trinitarian utterances, His Pauline soteriology knowing he walked with the appostle John. Just wow.

polycarp

I treasure and am blessed to study the words and deeds of the great men of God Who have gone before. No one should be allowed to write against Christianity who hasn't first studied with all diligence the words and deeds of these noble men. And all of my brothers and sisters in Christ should familiarize ourselves with our elder brothers thoroughly.

Amazing

Truly breathtaking to hear the words of Polycarp who was the disciple of John the Apostle himself. To read about his noble martyrdom related by his brothers in faith was fascinating and inspiring. Thank you making this great work available in audio format.

St. Polycarp, ora pro nobis!

Very brief, but excellent letters and story of St. Polycarp, Bishop and Martyr. May his example ever inspire us, in life and in death. Amen
