4.9/5 (33663 ratings)

Description:“This is the kind of book, and the kind of writing, which the Christian reader so desperately need—realistic yet firmly Christian, lively and historically exact, with real human beings living out convincing lives.”—The Reformed JournalHere, ranging from debauched student life in Carthage to impassioned devotion as the Bishop of Hippo, is the story of St. Augustine, perhaps the most significant figure in all of Christianity since St. Paul. The son of a wealthy and profligate Roman, Augustine was torn between conflicting religious opinions as his student life bridged the cults which had developed around the true church. With simple intensity, Mr. Coray describes Augustine’s relationship with his mother, Monica, the unquenchable fire of his passion for his mistress, Melanie, and the change of heart which led him to conversion. Augustine is frequently remembered only as a “saint”; SON OF TEARS helps to place him in perspective, a citizen also of this earth, where once he was someone’s son.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
