Exploring Virtue and Love in Saint Augustine's Writings

Delve into themes of virtue, love, and learning to love God through neighborly love in Saint Augustine's works, examining the question of pagan virtue, Christian learning from non-virtuous acts, the significance of charity, and the differentiation between love and its strength. Reflect on Roman virtues for the city's glory, contrasting wealth-driven virtues with those aligned with real virtue, and consider the importance of ordering life around love of God within the context of salvation history.
