About this Episode

In the upcoming chapters, St. Augustine begins his time in the city of Carthage. His time in Carthage from the ages of 16-19 years old is marked by his studies and his search for wisdom. In this search, St. Augustine encounters the writings of Cicero. In this bonus episode, Fr. Gregory Pine and Fr. Jacob-Bertrand Janczyk prepare us for what we can expect in the upcoming chapters. They also give us a better understanding of the Manichaeism heresy.
