The philosopher, theologian, and saint, Augustine of Hippo, has meant much to the Christian West for quite a few important reasons, including his dedicated service to the Church as a bishop (in a very difficult time) and his prolific writings. Perhaps above all, however, Augustine was an extraordinarily honest man: he opened up his life, good and bad and otherwise, for all to see and to learn from, especially through the book that has become a Christian classic, "The Confessions."

How did Saint Augustine of Hippo finally become a Christian?
Augustine was born a Christian. However, as he grew up he pretty much rejected all of that and became a "man of the world." He even sired a child out of wedlock. His thought at the time was, "God, give me chastity and continence - but not just now." His mother, St. Monica, prayed for his conversion for many years. In the summer of 386, after having read an account of the life of Saint Anthony of the Desert which greatly inspired him, Augustine underwent a profound personal crisis, which led him to convert to Christianity. Finally Monica's prayers paid off and with the help of St. Ambrose of Milan he returned to the Catholic Church, became a priest and eventually a bishop..
