St. Aristides: Early Christian Philosopher & Defender of the Faith

Описание: St. Aristides: Early Christian Philosopher & Defender of the Faith

St. Aristides was a Christian philosopher in 2nd-century Athens, known for writing one of the earliest surviving Christian apologies — the Apology of Aristides. In it, he described the beauty of Christian life: caring for the poor, the sick, widows, and orphans. His words offer one of the earliest written witnesses to the compassion and charity of the Church.
His work disappeared for centuries — and was rediscovered in a medieval manuscript in the 1800s, allowing his testimony to shine again.
May his clarity and love for truth inspire us today.
