Ancient Way
Read full descriptionHide full description
Ancient Way helps you engage writers from the early church. Written in Greek and Latin, followers of Jesus from the first centuries of the christian tradition wrote brilliant and formative works that can still very much nourish the souls of those of us who come after them. Sadly, modern disciples have lost connection from those early writings. As classical education, including the languages, becomes more of a specialized domain—increasingly separated even from ministers!—these treasures of the church become even more elusive. Ancient Way is a bridge for that gap. You're going to love what they find on the other side! Features: Original Greek and Latin Texts Reading tracks that guide you through texts as you gain proficiency. Vocabulary Trainer to help you build proficiency Privacy Policy: https://stevenhovater.com/ancient-way-privacy-policy/.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Ancient Way at Free against QuotesBySaints's $0.99. Ancient Way also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 months) and device support (3 vs 1). QuotesBySaints's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.5). On ads there is nothing between them.
