Customer Reviews

Amazing book!

Classic literature. A must read for any student of theology.

There was a ton of water damage which makes it pretty difficult to read. I'd like my money back

Water damage to book

Your Spiritual Growth

Good book to read to see that your life’s struggles are similar to others and there’s a light to look towards for inspiration.

Amazing book about a man's spiritual journey with Christ

It's an intimate book about a man who is lost sinner but one day Christ saves him. They journey that is very similar to my own. Very heart provoking!

Confessions of St Augustine

This is great Lenten Reading, and just good reading in general. What I have read and understood I wished I had read this book earlier in my life.
