Kevin Dodge’s illuminating Confessions of a Bishop revisits a literary classic, one that can ultimately help readers deepen their own relationship with God through contemplation and understanding.
While Saint Augustine’s Confessions is perhaps one of the best-known Christian masterpieces of all time, some are reluctant to approach it because of its complex themes and dense subject matter.
But Dodge aims to change all of that with his enlightening companion guide that spells out clearly and concisely exactly what Saint Augustine was speaking about all those centuries ago.
Using thorough plot summaries and questions meant to elicit thoughtful contemplation or discussion, Dodge traces the life of Saint Augustine from his abandonment of the Christian faith to his eventual return to the Church.
This colorful life, and the lessons he learned because of it, ultimately led to Saint Augustine’s position as one of the most influential figures in history of Christianity and western thought.
“What can I do to become truly happy?” and “How can I find rest for my soul?” are just a few of the deep questions that readers will have the opportunity to reflect upon after working through Dodge’s thoughtful guide.
