The title “Doctor of the Church” is given by the pope or ecumenical council to saints whose teaching and writings about the faith expand and deepen the church’s understanding of the faith across time and space. This course provides a basic overview of the lives of the four women Doctors of the Church, their teaching and spirituality, and their continued impact on the faithful. More Information Register Now
