Book Description
Excerpt from The Finding of Saint Augustine's Chair It was a pleasant sight to watch the sunburnt, dust-stained drovers, conversant with the nature and habits of their charge, patiently plodding along, each with a thick, warm, woollen plaid rolled up across his shoulders - the best protection against sudden storm, or heavy dew at night - and, with the help of trusty, well-trained dogs, quieting and guarding the strong and self-willed cattle. The carrier's great heavy waggon - broad-wheeled to save the toll - still plied with profit, carrying the pro duce of smoke-beclouded towns to all the Western counties, and in the cratch at the back, reposing on clean straw, were passengers with lean purses, who for a small payment were conveyed, slowly but surely, to some distant country home; whilst fast, bright-coloured coaches dashing past, carried, for business or for pleasure.

On the Road with Saint Augustine

Pages : 295
Book Description
★ Publishers Weekly starred review One of the Top 100 Books and One of the 5 Best Books in Religion for 2019, Publishers Weekly Christianity Today 2020 Book Award Winner (Spiritual Formation) Outreach 2020 Resource of the Year (Spiritual Growth) Foreword INDIES 2019 Honorable Mention for Religion This is not a book about Saint Augustine. In a way, it's a book Augustine has written about each of us. Popular speaker and award-winning author James K. A. Smith has spent time on the road with Augustine, and he invites us to take this journey too, for this ancient African thinker knows far more about us than we might expect. Following Smith's successful You Are What You Love, this book shows how Augustine can be a pilgrim guide to a spirituality that meets the complicated world we live in. Augustine, says Smith, is the patron saint of restless hearts--a guide who has been there, asked our questions, and knows our frustrations and failed pursuits. Augustine spent a lifetime searching for his heart's true home and he can help us find our way. "What makes Augustine a guide worth considering," says Smith, "is that he knows where home is, where rest can be found, what peace feels like, even if it is sometimes ephemeral and elusive along the way." Addressing believers and skeptics alike, this book shows how Augustine's timeless wisdom speaks to the worries and struggles of contemporary life, covering topics such as ambition, sex, friendship, freedom, parenthood, and death. As Smith vividly and colorfully brings Augustine to life for 21st-century readers, he also offers a fresh articulation of Christianity that speaks to our deepest hungers, fears, and hopes.
