Saint Peter Chrysologus, known as the "Doctor of Homilies”, was an Italian Bishop that had exceptional preaching skills, thus meriting the title Chrysologus, meaning “golden speech”. His sermons were simple, practical, and clear, dealing with the Gospels, Mary’s perpetual virginity, the penitential value of lent, Christ’s Eucharistic presence, His two divine natures, the primacy of Peter and his successors in the Church.
