Join Conor and the late Dr. Paul Thigpen as they trace the life of St. Augustine, from a youth of sin and searching to his eventual encounter with the Gospel through St. Ambrose. His journey to a grace-filled conversion shows why he is one of the most relatable saints, wrestling with doubt, desire, and the challenge of turning fully to God.Augustine has also had a lasting impact through his writings—The Confessions, City of God, On the Trinity, and more. Known as the Father of Western Theology and the Doctor of Grace, his thought continues to shape Christian life and theology today, inspiring all who seek truth and authentic conversion of heart and mind.Use code CGS50 to get 50% off a deluxe copy of The Confessions: https://tanbooks.com/products/confessions-of-st-augustine-of-hippo/👍 Like, Subscribe, or Follow The Conor Gallagher Show on your favorite podcast platform, and follow us on social media!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/conorgallaghershowInstagram: https://instagram.com/conorgallaghershowTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@conorgallaghershowSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1qtdMK8FqjAQ3ODlFXCEYt?si=ae4598b16c1d4cdeApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-conor-gallagher-show/id1789476722CHAPTERS:0:00 - The Passing of Dr. Paul Thigpen4:03 - Trailer5:43 - Paul’s Story and Augustine’s Story47:44 - The Confessions1:17:28 - The City of God1:36:05 - The Heresies2:18:09 - On Christian Doctrine2:39:40 - On the Trinity2:56:20 - Augustine’s Sermons3:11:19 - Augustine: Model for Holiness
