  • Through the Church Fathers: October 8

    The church has always struggled against distortions within. Tertullian exposes heresies that tear down instead of building up, Augustine admits only the Scriptures can bow his stiff neck under Christ’s yoke, and Aquinas begins his exploration of the soul’s passions, showing how desire, anger, and fear must be brought under reason and grace (Romans 6:13). Here, discipline, humility, and spiritual order combine to form a life submitted to Christ.

    Readings: Tertullian, Prescription Against Heretics, Chapters 42–44

    Augustine, The Confessions, Book 13, Chapter 15 (Section 17)

    Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Part 1–2, Question 22, Of the Subject of the Soul’s Passions

    I say that discernment must be both doctrinal and pastoral: Tertullian diagnoses heresy as social and ritual disorder that faithful discipline corrects; Augustine comforts the pilgrim who waits for bodily redemption while pursuing spiritual maturity; Aquinas supplies a workable scheme—test the proximate object, ask after the end, assess circumstances and consent—so pastors can form consciences without excusing culpability or condemning the weak. (Matthew 7:15; Romans 13:11; Romans 7:15)

    Readings:

    Tertullian, The Prescription Against Heretics, Chapters 39–41

    Augustine of Hippo, The Confessions, Book 11, Chapter 14

    Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Part 1–2, Question 20

    I say that apostolic succession and sacramental continuity form the backbone of trustworthy practice: Tertullian presses the church’s registers and the unity of faith as proof against novelty; Augustine helps me see worship as a re-creation of heaven and earth in Christ, so baptism and Eucharist shape the soul; Aquinas connects inward ordering to outward acts so that right doctrine and right moral formation produce upright practice. (1 Corinthians 15:3–4; Psalm 42:1; Matthew 28:19)

    Readings:

    Tertullian, The Prescription Against Heretics, Chapters 36–38

    Augustine of Hippo, The Confessions, Book 11, Chapters 13–14

    Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Part 1–2, Questions 19–20
