Works by Albert C. Outler
- Confessions and Enchiridion, newly translated and edited
by Albert C. Outler (Translator and Editor)
Description:
In The Confessions, Saint Augustine addressed himself
eloquently and passionately to the enduring spiritual questions that
have stirred the minds and hearts of thoughtful men since time began.
Written A.D. 397, The Confessions are a history of the young
Augustine's fierce struggle to overcome his profligate ways and
achieve a life of spiritual grace.
- Handbook on Faith, Hope, and Love (Translator)
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.
