Confessions of Saint Augustine

About Confessions of Saint Augustine

The Confessions of St. Augustine describes the author's spiritual journey to Christianity. It is the first Western autobiography, and has influenced Christian writers throughout the Middle Ages. Augustine tells of his youthful improprieties, and tells why he rejected Manichaeism and Astrology, leading to his conversion to Christianity at age 32.
 
Augustine of Hippo himself was a Roman African, early Christian theologian and philosopher whose writings influenced the development of Western Christianity and Western philosophy. He was the bishop of Hippo Regius in North Africa and is viewed as one of the most important Church Fathers in Western Christianity for his writings in the Patristic Period. Among his most important works is The City of God, De Doctrina Christiana, and Confessions. According to his contemporary, Jerome, Augustine "established anew the ancient Faith".
 
Augustine is recognized as a saint in the Catholic Church, the Eastern Christian Church, and the Anglican Communion and as a preeminent Doctor of the Church. Many Protestants, especially Calvinists and Lutherans, consider him to be one of the theological fathers of the Protestant Reformation due to his teachings on salvation and divine grace.
