A fresh analysis of the historical roots of The Nicene Creed and its relevance for Christian life today. Ellingsen prods readers to consider what they are saying each week in worship when The Creed is confessed. He helps readers to recognize the sacred and august company with whom they are confessing the faith--the rich fellowship created by The Creed. He highlights the Creed's Biblical roots and offers readers more appreciation of the Creed's truly ecumenical orientation, updating recent efforts by Eastern and Western theologians to bridge the gap on exclusive issues like the Filioque and Christology. Ellingsen develops the insights of famed historian Jaroslav Pelikan that the purpose of the Creed and the Trinity is to make clear that the God Who saved us is the One Who created us. Ellingsen shows us how this implies that on Creedal and Trinitarian grounds faith can never again be reduced to an other-worldliness with no concern about the physical well-being of the creation. Confessing The Nicene Creed is a book not just about how to talk about the faith, but also a vision for living faith.
