The Creed: What We Believe
Fee:听$60 | Five Weeks
More than a statement of belief, learn how the Apostles' Creed is a prayer, a revelation, a way of life, and the shared identity of the Christian community.听 This course offers a fresh exploration of who God is and what it means to believe for lived faith.
At the intersection of revelation and reason, the Creed expresses the essence of our Christian faith.听 It鈥檚 the very heart of all Christian theology.听 As we pray it together at mass, it reflects our commitment as both a community and as individuals, in devotion and discipleship to God. Using the Apostles Creed as its outline, while referring to the Nicene Creed and Scripture, this course examines in turn the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, to offer a fresh exploration of who God is, what it means to believe, and what faith in God means for living in today鈥檚 world.
