The Evangelical Power of the Nicene Creed

Описание: Friends, during this week’s episode of the Word on Fire Show, Matthew Petrusek and I discuss the Nicene Creed in relation to Christianity’s relentlessly doctrinal language, the development of theology, and the mystery on the far side of reason that invites us into the adventure of faith.

In addition, a listener asks: How is it possible to love others if I don’t love myself?
