Augustine's Spiritual Awakening | When Christianity Finally Made Sense

Augustine had spent years running from Christianity.Then, inconveniently, it started making sense.By the time he reached Milan, he had the career, the intellect, the ambition and the life he thought he wanted. What he did not have was peace.And once the truth began pressing in, Augustine had a new problem: believing it was one thing. Letting it change his life was another.In Part Two of the Rebel Saints deep dive into St. Monica and St. Augustine, we follow the restless road toward one of the most famous conversions in Catholic history — and the mother who had spent years praying for a son she could not control.This is a story about conversion, grace, desire, unanswered prayer, and what happens when God starts dismantling the life you were so sure you wanted.Because sometimes the long road home begins when you finally stop pretending you’re not lost.Find Confessions by St. Augustine on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4ci4NrA or read for free via Project Gutenburg: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/3296/3296-h/3296-h.htmSupport the Journey: Help other restless hearts find us!Follow: Hit the "+" or "Follow" button or subscribe, where applicable. Review: If you enjoyed this show, please leave a review or tap the stars.
