About this episode

"Nothing is far from God"

Have you ever heard the quote "You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it rests in you."? Or what about "To fall in love with God is the greatest romance; to seek Him, the greatest adventure and to find Him, the greatest human achievement"? These beautiful quotes are from the incredible Saint, Augustine of Hippo. And before he was a saint, Augustine was nothing short of a ruffian and rebel. It was only by the grace of God that he went on to become saint and doctor of the church! And we will tell his story...but! Not yet. First, we have to start with the story of the one that prayed Augustine into the arms of God, the woman who wept and fought for his holiness: Augustine's mother, Saint Monica.
