How did Augustine’s relationships (with his father, his mother, his friends) affect his relationship to sin
How did Augustine’s relationships (with his father, his mother, his friends) affect his relationship to sin
Augustine admits that his parents were ambitious for him. Patrick was actually quite proud of himself: though only a middle-class farmer, he did more for Augustine than many richer men did for their sons. It is also evident that Augustine felt quite guilty for the misdeeds he committed during this time, because his family was working so hard for his advancement.
Thank you!!!
