Through the Church Fathers: February 20

Through the Church Fathers in a YearToday’s readings guide us through the wisdom of Ignatius of Antioch, the sorrowful reflections of Augustine of Hippo, and the theological insights of Thomas Aquinas. Ignatius exhorts his readers to humility and unity, reminding them that even the greatest figures in Scripture considered themselves unworthy before God. He calls the faithful to submit to their spiritual leaders, just as Christ submitted to the Father. Augustine shares his grief over the loss of a dear friend, describing how sorrow darkened his soul and left him searching for comfort that could only be found in God. Lastly, Aquinas explores the order of love, demonstrating why love for God must always be supreme and how love for others finds its true meaning when rooted in Him.Explore the Project: Through the Church Fathers – https://www.throughthechurchfathers.com Patreon – https://www.patreon.com/cmichaelpatton Credo Courses – https://www.credocourses.com Credo Ministries – https://www.credoministries.org
