Clues to the Nicene Creed : A Brief Outline

The Nicene Creed has stood the test of time because its powerful summary of Christian faith helps us to distinguish between the teachings that are essential, core truths and those that are of secondary importance. In this new book David Willis explores this most ecumenical of church creeds and provides clues for interpreting its statements meaningfully here in the twenty-first century.

David Willis is Charles Hodge Professor Emeritus of Systematic Theology at Princeton Theological Seminary.
