Written in 397 A.D., Saint Augustine's classic autobiography, Confessions, reveals the innermost thoughts and struggles of a soul converting from selfishness and pleasure-seeking to a life of love for God. Born to North Africa in the 4th century to a devout Christian mother but a pagan father, of Latin stock, Augustine's early life was filled with Christian instruction but he was converted only after a wild life of hedonism before his conversion at about 40 years of age.
Once converted, Augustine became a Christian scholar and prolific writer, whose books have made a profound and lasting impact on the church for almost 17 centuries now. This is both his autobiography and doctrinal statement of the basics of Christianity as he understood it. The entire book is a classic about human weakness and our need for reconciliation to a holy God.
