Through the Church Fathers: January 2

Repentance, humility, resurrection, and ordered love form the backbone of the Christian life—and they are not learned all at once. Today’s readings press deeper into the moral and spiritual logic of the early church, revealing how God patiently calls His people back to unity, how the soul longs to be gathered into God Himself, and how sacred doctrine stands as a true science grounded in divine light.Readings:Clement of Rome, 1 Clement, Sections 8–15Augustine of Hippo, The Confessions, Book 1, Chapter 1 (3–4)Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Part 1, Question 1, Article 2Explore the Project:Through the Church Fathers – https://www.throughthechurchfathers.comPatreon – https://www.patreon.com/cmichaelpattonCredo Courses – https://www.credocourses.comCredo Ministries – https://www.credoministries.org#ChurchFathers #1Clement #Augustine #Confessions #ThomasAquinas #SummaTheologica #ChristianTradition #TheologicalFormation
