The author praises Gratian’s zeal for instruction in the Faith, and speaks lowly of his own merits. Taught of God Himself, the Emperor stands in no need of human instruction; yet this his devoutness prepares the way to victory. The task appointed to the author is difficult: in the accomplishment whereof he will be guided not so much by reason and argument as by authority, especially that of the Nicene Council.

The story of the Waldenses is one of the greatest spiritual sagas the world has ever known, yet few people have heard of them. Their story deserves to be told because, in spite of terrible persecution, their heritage is still alive and well today. They were devout Christians who tried to follow the original teachings of Jesus to the best of their abilities. The Church had different views and opposed them, including the Waldenses' efforts to translate the Bible out of Latin so that common people could read it. This book tells of their struggle to survive against a much larger and more powerful foe. It is told from the Waldenses' point of view, despite the previous belief that all we had known about them was written by their enemies.

A lengthy work by one of the first systematic theologians, Augustine goes over the details on the major sermon that Jesus gave otherwise known as "The Sermon the Mount." He goes over what each verse and line entails so that we can get a clearer picture of what Augustine believes the Lord Jesus would have meant in the time that he had come to Earth. Also, Augustine treats us with a series of pieces that deal with the way the gospels may all be written in different pieces but that they form a coherent whole. This part of the work is a complete connection of what the total message of the four Gospels entails and how the Bible message would not be complete without them. And then the last part of this book deals with several sermons about the different major themes in the Gospels so that we can take those teachings and apply them to everyday life.
