Augustine of Hippo (also called Saint Augustine or Augustinus) was a Christian thinker, author, and bishop.
He was born in 354 CE in North Africa and later moved to Italy.
His writings on Christianity were very influential. Many Christian churches recognize Augustine as a saint.
Many Protestants consider him one of the fathers of the Protestant Reformation due to his teachings on salvation and divine grace.
