Christian's Creed: Embracing the Apostolic Faith, The

The Apostles’ Creed is the most popular summary of the Christian faith. Yet for all its simplicity, the Creed expresses profound truths about God’s redemptive work that are full of liturgical, catechetical, confessional, and missional implications. In this book, author Stanley D. Gale familiarizes modern readers with this ancient statement of belief and its demand for a faith that enlightens the mind, enflames the heart, and engages the will with the wonders of God’s saving grace.

“Pastor Stan Gale has given us a study of the Apostles’ Creed that is set in the world in which most of us live. He has done a real service to the church by expounding this most basic of all statements of Christian belief. Expect some fresh insights and ample scriptural support for this essential tool of Christian discipleship.”Gale, Stanley D.
