Next series: Creeds and Councils
April 14 - May 12, 2024.
A name, not an ethical system, not a list of commandments, not a doctrinal statement, but a name: Jesus Christ, is at the center of our faith. “The most important thing about Christians is not what we do… but to whom we belong as shown by the one whose name we bear.” Because of the centrality of Jesus, believers throughout history have sought to articulate summary statements about Him: Who He is. What He has done. Who are we in relation to Him. These summary statements about Jesus Christ are the creeds and confessions of the church.
“Creeds & Councils” will explore the confessions of the early church. We will begin with the credal impulse. Not every faith has a creed. Christianity does. Why is that? We will move chronologically through the great creeds of the early church: The apostles, followed by the Nicene, which was explained at Chalcedon, concluding with the Athansian creed. Behind each creed is a rich history. Each creed is full of even richer content. And each creed has ongoing relevance for today. We will consider the history, content, and going relevance of the great creeds and councils of the early church.
