The Complete Church Fathers Collection for Android

The Church Fathers were ancient and influential Christian theologians and writers. Although there is no definitive list, the era of these scholars who set the theological and scholarly foundations of Christianity largely ended by AD 700 (John of Damascus died in 749 AD).
