In his final lecture Dr. Marra wraps up his series by offering an overall view of Confessions and Saint Augustine's general influence on important Christian thinkers, most especially Saint Thomas Aquinas and his contemporaries as well as Descartes. Dr. Marra summarizes the Confessions, while subsequently showing how the work was both influential in its own time and continues to be. Dr. Marra's final lecture perfectly wraps up all the teachings in his earlier lectures.
