Augustines intellectual journey began with a classical education in rhetoric, which laid the groundwork for his later theological pursuits. His conversion to Christianity brought a profound shift in his worldview, blending his classical education with a deep commitment to Christian doctrine. This synthesis of faith and reason became a cornerstone of Augustines approach to education. He believed that all truth is Gods truth, and therefore, the study of secular subjects could be a means to understand and glorify God. Augustines Confessions and The City of God are seminal works that illustrate his integration of faith and learning (2018) . In Confessions, Augustine emphasizes the importance of introspection and the pursuit of divine truth, while The City of God contrasts the transient nature of earthly cities with the eternal significance of the City of God (2018). These works have been instrumental in shaping the curriculum and philosophical underpinnings of Christian higher education, promoting a holistic approach that encompasses both spiritual and intellectual growth.
