About Via Patrum

Via Patrum means "the way of the Fathers": how the Church Fathers spoke, acted, argued, lived and died. This free library gives you their own words in fresh English translations, made from the original Greek and Latin.

READ whole works, from Clement of Rome and Ignatius to Origen and beyond, in a clean reader built for long reading. The whole library downloads once and works offline. LISTEN with read-along audio. The sentence being read is highlighted, and playback continues with your screen locked. Narration is computer-generated. SCRIPTURE AT A TAP.

With a connection you can also read the NIV, NASB, NIrV, Amplified Bible, ASV and Geneva Bible. Browse any chapter to see which Fathers cite it. TOPICS gather what the Fathers taught on one question, earliest first. The TIMELINE shows who wrote when. SEARCH covers every work and topic. Free, with no account, no ads and no tracking.
