Discussion of Augustine's "Confessions"

I spent yesterday re-reading Augustine of Hippo's magnificent works and came across this excellent video from Yale Professor Freedman. Professor Freedman is a historian and discusses Confessions in a historical context. If you have some time it's well worth watching in full.

Professor Freedman's take away from the Confessions is Augustine's:

1. Opposition to perfectionism
2. Exaltation of grace
3. Sin is indelible/not solvable
