Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley wrap up their discussion of the Apostles' Creed that they began last fall. Tune in as they talk about big takeaways and why the Creed is so important.

Questions Covered in This Episode:

• What stood out to you from our look at the creed? What do you find yourself going back to?
• Why does it end with “Amen?”
• Why is creedal orthodoxy so essential for us to recover?
• Should every church recite the apostles' creed?
• How does the creed help with bible literacy?
• How does the creed help us live the Christian life?

The Apostles’ Creed:

I believe in God, the Father Almighty,

creator of heaven and earth,

I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord,

who was conceived by the Holy Spirit

and born of the virgin Mary.

He suffered under Pontius Pilate,

was crucified, died, and was buried;

He descended to hell.

The third day He rose again from the dead.

He ascended to heaven 

and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty.

From there He will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,

the holy catholic church,

the communion of saints,

the forgiveness of sins,

the resurrection of the body,

and the life everlasting. Amen.

Helpful Definitions:

• Amen: So be it. 
• Credo: Latin “I believe.”
