Reading Club: ‘Confessions,’ Book XII
Alastair, Derek, and Matt take up and read Book XII of Augustine’s Confessions.
This week Alastair, Derek, and Matt take up and read Book XII of Augustine’s Confessions, in which Augustine parses Genesis 1:1 — “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”
If you’d like to read along — which we encourage you to do — Henry Chadwick’s translation is available widely at a reasonable price.
Follow Derek, Andrew, and Alastair for more tweet-sized brilliance. Special thanks to Tim Motte for sound editing. And thanks to The Joy Eternal for lending us their music, which everybody should download out of gratitude for their kindness.
