He also worked to resolve internal disputes and upheld the Church's teachings, earning him the title "The Shepherd Pope" for his pastoral care and guidance. This striking print, capturing the essence of Pope Soterus I, serves as a testament to his enduring impact on the history of Christianity. His life and leadership continue to inspire generations of believers, reminding us of the power of faith, courage, and unity in the face of adversity.
