led by Canon Wendy Claire Barrie

The historic Creeds of the Church—most importantly the Apostles' Creed and the Nicene Creed—are an essential and obligatory part of our liturgical tradition, and also a potential stumbling block for many. In this Wednesday forum led Canon Barrie, participants explored what the Creeds are (and what they are not), asked where they come from and how they came to be central to our worship practice, looked at some alternative creeds, and finally tried crafting our own.


Resources:

  • This handout, containing creeds from the the BCP as well as alternative creeds, was distributed at the presentation.
  • Canon Barrie recommends this podcast episode which explores the issues raised in the forum.
