description: You recite it. But do you understand it?The Apostles Creed has united Christians from different times places and traditions. It proclaims eternal truths for life today. We believe them we recite them but do we build our lives on them?The fact that so many in the early church died for their faith means they were caught up in something greater than themselves. What were those truths? How did they empower a revolution? How did early church pastors and theologians use the Apostles Creed as the essential guide to the basics of the Christian life?Ben Myers re-introduces that creed. He shows us what about the Christian faith is so counter-cultural and what truths embedded in the Apostles Creed weve come to assume when really they should amaze us and earn our allegiance unto death.
