Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ★ Publishers Weekly starred review One of the Top 100 Books and One of the 5 Best Books in Religion for 2019, Publishers Weekly Christianity Today 2020 Book Award Winner (Spiritual Formation) Outreach 2020 Resource of the Year (Spiritual Growth) Foreword INDIES 2019 Honorable Mention for Religion This is not a book about Saint Augustine. In a way, it's a book Augustine has written about each of us. Popular speaker and award-winning author James K. A. Smith has spent time on the road with Augustine, and he invites us to take this journey too, for this ancient African thinker knows far more about us than we might expect. Following Smith's successful You Are What You Love, this book shows how Augustine can be a pilgrim guide to a spirituality that meets the complicated world we live in. Augustine, says Smith, is the patron saint of restless hearts--a guide who has been there, asked our questions, and knows our frustrations and failed pursuits. Augustine spent a lifetime searching for his heart's true home and he can help us find our way. "What makes Augustine a guide worth considering," says Smith, "is that he knows where home is, where rest can be found, what peace feels like, even if it is sometimes ephemeral and elusive along the way." Addressing believers and skeptics alike, this book shows how Augustine's timeless wisdom speaks to the worries and struggles of contemporary life, covering topics such as ambition, sex, friendship, freedom, parenthood, and death. As Smith vividly and colorfully brings Augustine to life for 21st-century readers, he also offers a fresh articulation of Christianity that speaks to our deepest hungers, fears, and hopes.

Download or read book Late Have I Loved Thee written by Augustine of Hippo and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2006-12-05 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first collection of Saint Augustine's varied writings on human and divine love—chosen to reflect his lifelong preoccupation with ordo amoris, the principle of rightly directed love. "My weight is my love," Saint Augustine writes in The Confessions. He sees our ability to love as disordered by sin, so that we often choose badly what and how to love. Only by recognizing that we are commanded to love God first can any other object of our love be properly ordered, Late Have I Loved Thee draws on the riches found in Augustine's sermons, letters, treatises, and Scripture commentaries, as well as passages from The Confessions and City of God. Augustine (354-430 A.D.) was the most prolific writer of Christian antiquity and the most influential theologian in Church history. In his first encyclical, God Is Love, current Pope Benedict XVI acknowledges his indebtedness to him. When we read Augustine today, we encounter the same direct, eloquent passions his original listeners experienced, infused with his deep sense of human weakness and burning desire for union with God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Confessions of St. Augustine has a special place among the world’s greatest books. As Augustine reflects upon his life in the light of Scripture and the presence of God, he reveals how you can find the way to rest securely in Jesus, discern good from evil, avoid false spiritual pursuits, and know the will 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. Here is the timeless conflict between good and evil, portrayed through the life of one man who found spiritual growth and unshakable faith. Just as Augustine did, you can experience the unspeakable joy of being pure and righteous before God, regardless of your past.

Illustration or Images St. Augustine A Significant Figure in Early Christian theology and philosophy. St. Augustine, also known as Augustine of Hippo, was a significant figure in early Christian theology and philosophy. He lived from 354 to 430 AD in Thagaste and his life and writings have had a profound impact on the development of Western Christianity and philosophy. Here's an overview of his life and some key points include in the biography: **Early Life and Conversion:** St. Augustine was born in 354 AD in Thagaste, in what is now Algeria. He was raised by his mother, Monica, who was a devout Christian, and his father, Patricius, who was a pagan. Augustine received a good education and was known for his intelligence and curiosity. However, he led a somewhat hedonistic and rebellious life in his younger years. His most famous account of his spiritual journey comes from his autobiography, "Confessions," where he describes his struggle with sin and his eventual conversion to Christianity. His conversion, which took place in 386 AD in Milan, Italy, was a pivotal moment in his life and marked a turning point towards his deep involvement in Christian thought and theology. **Theological Contributions:** St. Augustine made significant contributions to Christian theology. He developed the concept of original sin, arguing that humanity inherited the sinful nature from Adam and that salvation could only come through God's grace. He also engaged in debates on predestination and free will, discussing the relationship between human choice and divine sovereignty. His work "City of God" is a monumental treatise that contrasts the earthly city (the city of man) with the heavenly city (the city of God). In this work, he discussed the fall of the Roman Empire and the enduring nature of God's kingdom. **Influence on Philosophy:** St. Augustine's writings also had a profound impact on the development of Western philosophy. His exploration of the nature of time, memory, and the self in "Confessions" influenced later philosophical discussions on these topics. His ideas on knowledge, belief, and truth also contributed to epistemological debates. **Legacy:** St. Augustine's teachings have continued to shape Christian theology and philosophy throughout the centuries. His ideas have influenced theologians, philosophers, and scholars from various traditions. He's recognized as one of the most important figures in the history of Christianity and Western thought. When writing his biography, make sure to delve into his personal struggles, his transformation, his intellectual pursuits, and his lasting impact on theology and philosophy. You might also want to explore his relationship with other historical figures of his time, his interactions with different Christian communities, and the historical context in which he lived.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The reader who has never met Augustine before ought to go first of all to the Confessions,' reflected the Trappist monk and scholar Thomas Merton. 'Augustine lived the theology that he wrote. . . . He experienced the reality of Christ living in his own soul.' Saint Augustine, the celebrated theologian who served as Bishop of Hippo from A.D. 396 until his death in A.D. 430, is widely regarded as one of the most influential thinkers in the Western world. Written in the form of a long prayer addressed directly to God, Augustine's Confessions, the remarkable chronicle of his conversion to Christianity, endures as the greatest spiritual autobiography of all time. 'Augustine possessed a strong, capacious, argumentative mind,' wrote Edward Gibbon. 'He boldly sounded the dark abyss of grace, predestination, free-will, and original sin.' And the eminent historian Jaroslav Pelikan remarked: 'There has, quite literally, been no century of the sixteen centuries since the conversion of Augustine in which he has not been a major intellectual, spiritual, and cultural force.'
