Tokens of Trust

Description

What are the essentials of Christian belief? In the first three hundred years of the Church's existence, this question produced the Apostles' Creed and the Nicene Creed - statements of belief which are still held in common by Christians today. Yet the creeds are not just checklists of beliefs - they show us who and what we can trust in this world, and offer us a glimpse of another. In Tokens of Trust, Rowan Williams looks at the implications of saying 'I believe' to the great claims of the creeds: - that God is almighty; - that he is the creator of heaven and earth; - that Jesus is the Son of God; - that he rose from the dead; - that there is one Church; - that there is life beyond death.
