Finding Our Way Home
$19.99In an age when Christianity has been corrupted and co-opted by cultural forces and personal agendas, pastor and theologian Glenn Packiam shows how an ancient Creed can save the modern church–and might just save your faith.
The Church today has lost its way. We’ve pursued the wrong priorities, put our hope in personalities, and elevated popularity over spiritual maturity. And it’s not just the Church that’s lost; we are too. As culture wars rage and competing voices argue, many Christians are left asking a basic question, What’s a Christian, anyway?
But there’s hope. The church has been here before, and our spiritual ancestors crafted a powerful resource to help us find our way: the Nicene Creed. Readers who take this journey with Packiam will:
*discover how the Creed–born in an ancient time of controversy, confusion, and disunity much like today–is not just a statement of beliefs, but a rope to lead us home;
*experience an invitation into the mystery and wonder of God through these ancient words; and
*rediscover a path to becoming faithful witnesses to the way of Jesus as we learn to live into the Creed’s beautiful story, stunning hope, and powerful vision of what a Christian is.
The world yearns for Christ’s joy, peace, and hope, but the gospel is only believable if Christians live like it’s true. Join this adventure into the heart of authentic Christianity, and rediscover for yourself the fresh, timeless power of our Creed, returning to the living heart of what it means to be a Christian.
