What were some of the challenges augustine faced in his life? are these unique to the fourth century in which augustine lived?

Although Augustine would become a great man of faith, he continued to struggle with the obvious pain, suffering and evil allowed by God. In his first book, On Order (386 AD), Augustine wrote: “There is nothing that even the most gifted people desire more than to finally understand how, taking into account the amount of evil in this world, one can still believe that God cares about human affairs.” For the next forty years, Augustine grappled with the reality of this paradox. He focused on God’s nature in scripture and God’s apparent desire for humanity. He determined that God created us for a relationship with him, and that authentic relationship is impossible with puppets. Apparently, God wanted us to have the capacity to freely choose or reject him. Of course, if we have free will, we have the capacity to choose love or hate -- good or evil. After four decades of writing on the subject, Augustine concluded that “God judged it better to bring good out of evil than to suffer no evil at all.” yes these unique to the fourth century in which augustine lived
