Reviews
This book wrestles with the fundamental questions of the human relation to God and the world. In so doing, Irizar brings forward Augustine's thought on the church in a thoughtful, creative, and timely manner to address spiritual, ethical, and social concerns central to us today. -- Matthew Drever, The University of Tulsa, USA
What is the meaning of belonging and relationship within the Christian community in a time of pandemic? This book offers insights to help us guide in this present crisis, insights gathered from the works and thought of Augustine (354-430), where he proposes a mystical belonging through love in Christ's Body. -- Enrique Eguiarte, Institutum Patristicum Augustinianum, Italy
