Polycarp, považovaný za jedného z najvýznamnejších apoštolských otcov, bol vplyvným ranokresťanským biskupom. Jeho spisy, vrátane slávneho Listu Filipským, ponúkajú cenný pohľad na formujúce sa doktríny a život rannej cirkvi. Polycarpov odkaz je hlboko spojený s jeho mučeníckou smrťou, ktorá sa stala symbolom viery a vytrvalosti pre budúce generácie. Jeho učenie a príklad naďalej rezonujú v teologických a duchovných tradíciách.
