Through the Church Fathers: March 25

from Through the Church Fathers

Today's readings offer profound insights from Augustine and Aquinas. Augustine (Confessions, Chapter IX) vividly recounts how God intervened to rescue Alypius from a wrongful accusation, teaching him crucial lessons about humility and discernment that shaped his future ministry. In Aquinas’s Summa Theologica (Part I, Question 44, Article 4), we explore why God is the ultimate purpose—the final cause—of all creation. Aquinas thoughtfully explains how every creature, consciously or unconsciously, finds its fulfillment in God, the supreme good.
