Through the Church Fathers

Introduction to Saint Augustine


Listen Later

Augustine’s Confessions is not a theological textbook—it is a soul laid bare before God. In this episode, we introduce one of the most honest spiritual works ever written, where Augustine speaks directly to God about sin, memory, desire, grace, and mercy. This daily reading functions as the devotional heartbeat of Through the Church Fathers, reminding us that theology begins not with mastery, but with repentance. Augustine does not confess to impress us; he confesses because he cannot stand before God without mercy—and neither can we.
