St. Augustine on the Traits of the One True Church (Hint: It's the Catholic Church) | Ep. 42
Description
CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION OF CHRISTENDOM
In this episode, we dive into one of the writings of the great Church Father St. Augustine (354-430) to see how he describes the one true Church. The work is "Against the Fundamental Letter of Manichaeus," which he wrote in AD 397. In short, St. Augustine describes the one true Church in a way that, 1,600 years later, continues to match only one church: the Catholic Church.
