Welcome!

For the researcher in patristics two types of links have been included: those that lead to a wide variety of other places and those that I seldom see mentioned elsewhere. There are also sections on the Graeco-Roman background of the early Church and icons.

You will also find links to resources in Lutheranism and classical Christianity.

If you are interested in genealogy I have listed some of web pages most useful to me, as well as a chart of the descendants of Christian Mammoser.

For the rest of you there are several other of my favorite places to visit, including links to the University of Virginia.
