UPDATE: “Confessions” Book VIII – Chapters 1 – 6

How pagan are modern-day church services today? Have church services been pagan all along?

Here are our essays on Book VIII – Chapters 1 – 6 of Augustine’s Confessions.

We discussed the implications of delayed gratification, the pagan elements and origins of the Catholic Mass and Protestant services, the life of Anthony the Great and whether or not Christ calls us to a life of asceticism.
