Starting at an age of 16, Augustine has many sins. He, like any other child, does many wrong things and has bad behavior. But different to many children Augustine begins to learn and realize at a very young age the difference between right and wrong and what he should or shouldn’t be doing. This is where Augustine’s journey initially begins, as a young child searching for right and wrong answers. This is where his physical and spiritual journey begins. In Book II Saint August

This is one of his many examples of frustration and confusion at a very young and early age of his journey. This passage goes on to explain how the Lord knew exactly of the situation but kept quiet because of Augustine’s need to learn on his own through trial and error and his own experiences.

Saint Augustine’s work expresses a lot of how his mind fought between right and wrong, good and bad, and good and evil. He fought with and picked at many of the Lord’s words until they seemed to be nothing of what they began as. Many of them completely change meaning when he is done with them. But yet in the end he is left praising every one of them. Understanding them or not he knows that that is what he believes and truly feels. He knows that he is supposed to be following the Lord and speaking of his words because that is what the Lord wants him to do. He has learned from them and now passes them along to others so they can also experience the learning and journey that he has. He goes from sinner to saint just as his journey goes from beginning to end.

Augustine not only begins to learn many facts of life on his journey but also many spiritual facts pertaining to his very own life. He begins to grow as a Christian but in the same since his life becomes much more complicated. He grows as a Christian by learning more and more about them and what he wants to be. He learns the rights and wrongs of Christianity and what it truly means to be a Christian. Although he is still a sinner just like everyone else, he learns the importance of learning God and the things that he speaks of. He also learns the importance of practicing what he is preaching. He cannot speak of the Lord’s
