How to Understand the Creed - Softcover

ow can Christians today truthfully recite the creed, identify themselves with it personally, and understand what they are saying? To produce this clear and positive guide, three priests responsible for training in French dioceses worked together over three years. Phrase by phrase, article by article, they show what Christians have believed and can believe by the creed. Like the creed itself, they limit themselves to the essentials, and they write for all those who want to believe and understand the faith that they proclaim in church Sunday by Sunday.
