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. Join us in exploring these powerful reflections on divine providence and purpose!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
