Summary

In his confessions, Saint Augustine reflects upon his life in the light of scripture and the presence 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. This work presents a wonderful contrast between the Holy God who created all things and whom heaven and earth cannot contain and a commonly sinful man who has joyfully received God's loving salvation and mercy.

Many scholars consider Saint Augustine to be among the greatest and most influential fathers of the early church. And as you listen to his The Confessions of Saint Augustine, you will find the confident humility that is common among those whom Jesus calls "great in the kingdom of heaven". Augustine wrote as a common man, and so his words span time and tradition. May his confessions guide you to the one whom he confesses.
