About the Book

Augustine On Prayer 978-0-89942-171-1 Augustine on Prayer provides an excellent summary of Saint Augustine's extensive teachings on prayer. By Rev. Thomas A. Hand, O.S.A., this book explores St. Augustine's teachings on the role of prayer in the life of Christians. This Saint, who is a Doctor of the Church and considered a religious genius, incorporated lessons from his own life and misspent youth into his informative teachings. Augustine on Prayer is an important resource for all believers wishing to learn from this brilliant Saint. The prayers of St. Augustine hold immense spiritual value, offering profound insights into the nature of God, the human soul, and the journey of faith. As one of the most influential Church Fathers, Augustine's prayers reflect his deep longing for divine truth, mercy, and grace. They serve as a guide for Christians seeking to grow closer to God through humility, repentance, and love.

His famous plea, "You have made us for Yourself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it rests in You," expresses the universal human yearning for God. His prayers encourage believers to surrender their desires and struggles to God, trusting in His providence and love. Additionally, Augustine's prayers are a model of repentance. His Confessions are filled with prayers of contrition, demonstrating that true conversion requires both sorrow for sin and the grace of God. These prayers teach humility, emphasizing that human weakness can only be overcome through divine assistance. His prayers also express a deep love for Scripture and wisdom, urging believers to seek God through His Word. They inspire a contemplative approach to faith, blending reason and devotion. Ultimately, Augustine's prayers remain valuable because they resonate across centuries, offering timeless guidance for those striving to grow in holiness and experience the fullness of God's grace.
