For Augustine’s Confessions: What do you believe motivated Augustine to write his Confessions?
What will be an ideal response?
The responses to this question will vary widely, as the text asks for students’ beliefs about motivation; however, most answers should include the following reflections: Augustine’s Confessions frame Christian conversion through the need for redemption. Seemingly modelled on the paradigm of the conversion of Paul, Augustine demonstrates how he was among the worst sinners, and, if someone like him could be awakened by “God’s light,” then anyone reading the text could surely do the same.
