Why write a book on someone who has been dead for centuries and who is so distant from contemporary concerns? Because Augustine is one of the most influential Christians we can study.
Augustine had a deep Christian faith, but struggled to find the balance between a contemplative life and an active one. As he listened to the religious and social environment around him, Augustine began to engage with it. His redemptive lifestyle not only called for faithful Christian reasoning, but the demolition of destructive social narratives.
Read about his life, biblical commentary, theological insight, political, social and cultural analysis, in this book by Paul Henderson.
