The Worldview
THE APOSTLES CREED presents a strong Christian understanding of God. It teaches that knowing God matters, that Jesus Christ is God and Savior, and that believers should seek a better understanding of Him so they can make Him known and live in true peace and joy.
The series treats the Apostles’ Creed as a guide to understanding God’s love in Creation, Salvation, and the future. It presents theology not as an abstract exercise but as knowledge of God with relevance for everyday life, families, and others.
Its central conviction is that people have been shortchanged by selfishness and need rescue. The answer offered is better theology: knowing God more truly and living in grace.
The series’ emphasis on knowing God accords with Jesus’ prayer: “And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent” (John 17:3).
