About this ebook
We’re all searching. Sometimes the search is easy: simply type a question and the answer pops up. But sometimes our questions are complicated, and the answers are difficult to see and harder to articulate. How do we discover and examine the truths that give meaning and purpose to life? Adam Hamilton believes that some powerful answers are contained in the Apostles’ Creed, an early statement of foundational Christian beliefs.
In this book, Hamilton considers important questions of life, reality, and truth. He explores not only what Christians believe, but also why they believe it and why it matters.
Chapters include:
God
Jesus Christ
The Holy Spirit
The Church at the Communion of Saints
The Forgiveness of Sins
The Resurrection of the Body
Creed: What Christians Believe and Why is also part of a six-week church-wide program that includes a Leader Guide, DVD, and youth and children resources.

My son has terminal brain cancer. As I sit by his bed we recite the Apostles Creed, the 23rd Psalm and the Lord's Prayer, aloud or silently as we are able. I read aloud excerpts from the book Creed. It reassures us both of the "resurrection of the body and the life everlasting". This is not my first book by Adam Hamilton nor will it be my last, but I do believe it is the best. I have purchased six additional books for family members and I pray they are as moved by the words of Adam Hamilton's Creed as I have been.
