Reading and Tweeting Augustine

I signed on for the Twitter experiment because much as I love Augustine and am indebted to him for my conversion, I've never read The City of God from cover to cover. This was just the prodding I needed and a great (if imperfectly observed) discipline for Lent. In the process I've found that my relationship to Augustine has changed. The inward-looking Christian Platonist I loved in my youth—the Augustine of the Cassiciacum Dialogues, Of True Religion, and On Free Will; the avid reader of the libri Platonici as we know him from the Confessions—has become the mature critic of Platonism whom I love just as much now that I am older too.
