Excellent Introduction to Saint Augustine,
By
This review is from: Augustine Catechism: Enchiridion on Faith Hope and Love (The Augustine Series) (Paperback)
The Enchiridion is one of Augustine's most approachable texts. Written as an introduction to the faith, it is simple and straightforward, and does not necessitate a firm grasp of the historical context in order to understand it. As he explains the creed and the Lord's Prayer, the most basic and important theological points he stood for become apparent. There are moments of great humour and representative comments that give the reader a feel for his personality and larger work.
This would be appropriate for a theology or sunday school class of high school level or above, and also good for individual study.
