  • Summary

  • In today's readings from Through the Church Fathers in a Year, we begin Ignatius of Antioch’s Epistle to the Magnesians, where he exhorts the Church to honor their young bishop, remain steadfast in unity, and resist false teachings. Augustine’s Confessions recounts the moving story of his mother Monica’s persistence in prayer for his conversion and the prophetic assurance given to her by a bishop that "the son of these tears shall not perish." Aquinas’s Summa Theologica explores the nature of divine happiness, affirming that God’s beatitude is perfect, unchanging, and the source of all joy.
