TOS034: Watching the Saints: Patrick and Augustine

Published: Sept. 20, 2018, 8 a.m.

Join Patti Brunner to look at a couple of saints whose movies are based on their own account of their lives.  Today we would call them autobiographies but both St. Augustine’s and St. Patrick’s were called “Confession” and seem to be a “tell all” to the Church.  Both of these men had events in their youth that were scandalous which makes their conversion stories more interesting.  See the contrasts and similarities of these saints who were contemporaries of one another.  A closer look at St. Augustine and St. Patrick shows us how one person who turns their face to God can make a difference as we continue to honor them 1700 years later.
