Nothing I’ve read in Christian literature has made me want to hang out with the author as much as this work. Augustine is raw and incredibly knowledgeable of scripture - I felt the desire to just sit with him and learn what he has gleamed. His writing embodies someone finding himself, seeking a view of Christ’s perfection that he may be made pure himself and is telling us his journey towards that end.
