- Confessions of Saint Augustine
Description:
In his Confessions, Saint Augustine reflects upon his life in the light of scripture
and the presence of God. He begins with his infancy, pondering the many sins of his life
before his conversion, and he confesses not only his sins but even more the greatness of God.
This work presents a wonderful contrast between the Holy God who created all things and whom
heaven and earth cannot contain, and a commonly sinful man who has joyfully received God's
loving salvation and mercy.
Many scholars consider Saint Augustine to be among the greatest and most influential fathers
of the early church. And as you read his Confessions, you will find the confident
humility that is common among those whom Jesus calls "great in the kingdom of heaven."
Augustine writes as a common man, and so his words span time and tradition. May his
Confessions guide you to the One whom he confesses.
- Handbook on Faith, Hope, and Love
Description:
Written after 420 C.E. to a man named Laurence, this wonderful book by Augustine is a short treatise on the proper mode of worshipping God. Following 1 Corinthians 13, Augustine describes true worship of God through faith, hope, and love. In thirty-three small chapters, Augustine's description of true worship covers all the major ideas of the Christian religion, providing new and interesting insights on each idea. Given that it was written less than a decade before he died, Augustine's Handbook contains some of his most mature reflections on Christian doctrines. Both those looking to understand the proper mode of worshipping God and those just interested in a brief encapsulation of Augustine's mature thought should look no further than Handbook of Faith, Hope, and Love. It is beneficial for personal and theological study.
