Wild Sinner to Saint of the Ages: The Spiritual Warfare & Conversion of St. Augustine | Paul Thigpen

Join Conor and the late Dr. Paul Thigpen as they trace the life of St. Augustine, from a youth of sin and searching to his eventual encounter with the Gospel through St. Ambrose. His journey to a grace-filled conversion shows why he is one of the most relatable saints, wrestling with doubt, desire, and the challenge of turning fully to God.

Augustine has also had a lasting impact through his writings—The Confessions, City of God, On the Trinity, and more. Known as the Father of Western Theology and the Doctor of Grace, his thought continues to shape Christian life and theology today, inspiring all who seek truth and authentic conversion of heart and mind.
