St. Augustine: Model of Conversion

by Mark McNeil

St. Augustine - Model of Conversion Mark McNeil With a title borrowed from a homily by Pope Benedict XVI, Mark McNeil offers you many valuable insights for living today gleaned from the life and thought of St. Augustine. A convert from Anglicanism and a teacher of Thomistic Philosophy, McNeil shares the Holy Father’s love for, and study of, the great Doctor of the Church. Now you’ll discover how St. Augustine set forth a synthesis between the Christian Faith and the best of Classical thought - showing how the everyday features of life, even tragedies, direct us to God - and how that synthesis can help you better face the challenges of the modern world. In these all new CD presentations, you’ll look at St. Augustine in three in terms of his emotional experience, his remarkable intellect, and his historic act of faith. As you listen, Mark McNeil reveals how our Faith is consistent with human reason and actually perfects reason at its best. And so Christians need fear no scientific discovery, or any philosophical, or historical claim. Now you’ll see why we should be able to dialogue with anybody about anything, not just because the Faith can stand up under all that scrutiny, but because it is our Faith that enables us to make sense of the world.
