Creed: What Christians Believe and Why
We’re all searching. Sometimes the search is easy: simply type a question and the answer pops up. But sometimes our questions are complicated, and the answers are difficult to see and harder to articulate. How do we discover and examine the truths that give meaning and purpose to life? Adam Hamilton believes that some powerful answers are contained in the Apostles’ Creed, an early statement of foundational Christian beliefs.
In this book, Hamilton considers important questions of life, reality, and truth. He explores not only what Christians believe, but also why they believe it and why it matters.
Chapters include:
God
Jesus Christ
The Holy Spirit
The Church at the Communion of Saints
The Forgiveness of Sins
The Resurrection of the Body
Creed: What Christians Believe and Why is also part of a six-week church-wide program that includes a Leader Guide, DVD, and youth and children resources.
Explores what Christians believe, why they believe, and why it matters through the Apostles Creed.
Readers go beyond reciting the words to explore the basics of what we believe.
Rather than focus on what drives us apart, individuals and churches will seek what brings us together as Christians.
Makes an ideal Lenten and Easter study.
