Amy Donahue (http:\/\/www.thisisamy.com)<\/p><\/div>\n

I’ve previously written<\/a> about one of my favourite Early Church Fathers, St. Polycarp and\u00a0I’ve just finished preparing the account of his martyrdom that we’re going to be reading in the JP2 Group<\/a>,\u00a0starting next week.<\/p>\n

Whenever we read\u00a0documents from the Early Church I always work hard to try and produce the most readable translation for us to study. I do this\u00a0by comparing many of the different translations and\u00a0I do this in an attempt to eliminate all possible barriers to people reading, engaging with and actually enjoying these early Christian writers.<\/p>\n

If you would like to view this document, links are provided below. The document is available in both Microsoft Word (.docx) and Adobe Reader formats (.pdf).<\/p>\n

I’ve also recorded this document in an MP3 fjle because I personally learn best when I use audio. So…if you’re looking for something to listen to while you’re sunbathing at Pacific Beach over Memorial Day Weekend, look no further!<\/p>\n

If you would like to join us in our study, we will begin on 2nd June at St. John the Evangelist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
