Episode: Day 12: Attachment and Grief (The Confessions of St. Augustine)
Description: Sifting through the grief of losing his friend, St. Augustine analyzes whether he is more attached to his friend or to the suffering itself.

Jacob-Bertrand Janczyk discuss our call to love, recognizing that we will be united in heaven with God and each other. Today’s readings are Book 4, Chapters 5-10.
