Augustine “Confessions”

Philosopher of Faith, Grace, and the Human Soul

Augustine of Hippo (354–430 AD) was a Christian philosopher and theologian whose writings laid the foundation for much of Western Christianity. Best known for Confessions, On Christian Doctrine, and City of God, Augustine explored themes of divine grace, original sin, free will, and the nature of time and the soul.
