Description
The Lives and Prayers of Catholic Saints: Volume II combines the stories of Saint Augustine of Hippo and Saint Thomas Aquinas.
Combining the lives of Saint Augustine of Hippo and Saint Thomas Aquinas is an obvious choice. Saint Thomas followed in the footsteps of Saint Augustine, often synthesizing and quoting heavily from Augustine's sermons and writings.
The Church has numerous fathers who have influenced its dogma in substantial ways. Although none of them can be singled out as the most pivotal theologian of Church history, it can certainly be said that Saint Augustine of Hippo has long been a central figure to Christian thought, informing both on the nature of God and the nature of Christian morality.
Saint Thomas Aquinas followed in Augustine's genius. Aquinas' genius lay in his ability to synthesize vast and disparate sources into intelligible and convincing discourse. Likely, not many "average" Christians would choose Aquinas for their bedtime reading, just as most patients would not care to hear the scientific explanation behind the human genome. Yet, the implication of that discovery, just like the implications for Aquinas' groundbreaking approach to Christianity, has changed everything.
