About
This free, self-paced online course explores the Apostolic Fathers — the earliest Christian writings after the New Testament. Across nine modules and twenty-four lessons, you'll meet the letter of 1 Clement, the letters of Ignatius of Antioch, Polycarp of Smyrna and the first martyr account, the Didache church manual, the Epistle of Barnabas, 2 Clement, Papias, the Shepherd of Hermas, and the Letter to Diognetus — tracing how Christianity developed, worshiped, organized itself, and defended its faith in the early second century. Each lesson is written in plain, story-driven language, pairs with a short quiz, and closes with a faith connection that ties early church history to Christian life today. 9 modules. 24 lessons. Completely free. A community education ministry of Solo Faith Church in Concord, North Carolina.
