Rhys Laverty and Mark Hamilton join us to discuss their new book Augustine: Advent Homilies, a collection of seventeen sermons by Augustine on the topic of Advent. We talk about how Augustine’s sermons give insight into the ways his theological understanding, pastoral wisdom, and rhetorical skill combine to draw the hearts of his hearers upward to God. He uses paradox and imagery to illuminate the divine mysteries of the Incarnation, eternal generation, and virgin birth of Christ. In doing so, he provides a template for modern reflection on the season of Advent. We also discuss the role of the sermon in a liturgical context as well as the danger of only focusing in Christ as Savior.
