A long assertion of the christian truth. It starts out as a critique of Paganism. So if you ever had to argue with a Pagan, he touches upon why their gods should not be worshiped.

The rest of the book deals with a lot of problems in theology/ philosophy. Mainly between the earthly city and the heavenly city of God.

It is long but it is worth it. Augustine isn't considered one of the better church fathers for no reason. He knows his shit.

You cannot even begin to fathom how powerful a witness Athanasius is. He spat in the face of pagans and heretics alike. By the grace of God he defied all attempts on his life and died a natural death, fitting for such a witness of Christ. Contra mundum!
