In every generation, the Christian church must interpret and restate its bedrock beliefs, answering the challenges and concerns of the day. This accessible overview walks readers through centuries of creeds, councils, catechisms, and confessions—not with a dry focus on dates and places, but with an emphasis on the living tradition of Christian belief and why it matters for our lives today. As a part of the KNOW series, Know the Creeds and Councils is designed for personal study or classroom use, but also for small groups and Sunday schools wanting to more deeply understand the foundations of the faith. Each chapter covers a key statement of faith and includes a discussion of its historical context, a simple explanation of the statement’s content and key points, reflections on contemporary and ongoing relevance, and discussion questions.

In Credo, you'll find each document printed in full along with introductions to set each document in its historical context, making Credo a rich resource for parents, students, and pastors-any Christian who says "I believe."

Book Description

The beauty of the Christian faith is unparalleled. Yet in many ways we have rejected our faith tradition in favor of individualism and the ironic 'No creed but Christ.' The creeds, confessions, and catechisms fight against this tendency. They connect us to the 'great cloud of witness' who went before us. They give us confidence and boldness as we worship within our churches and homes alongside the saints saved by the killed, risen, and reigning King Jesus. In We Believe: Creeds, Confessions, and Catechisms for Worship, Mathew has collected the essential church documents for Protestants: The Apostles' Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the Athanasian Creed; the Dutch Reformed Three Forms of Unity; the Westminster Confession and Shorter Catechism; the London Baptist Confession and Spurgeon's A Puritan Catechism; the Augsburg Confession and Luther's Small Catechism; and the Anglican's Thirty-Nine Articles and an Outline of the Faith.

Book Description

The German edition of Commentary on Luther's Catechisms by Albrecht Peters has long been the gold standard of research on the catechetical texts of the great reformer. This translation makes the wealth of research available in English for both the researcher and the catechist. Separate volumes address the Decalogue, the Creed, the LordÆs Prayer, the Sacraments, and Confession with the Table of Duties, prayers, and the Marriage and Baptismal Booklets. This definitive and comprehensive study of Luther's catechetical writings places Luther's catechisms in the full context of his broader theology and writings, as well as within the history of Christian catechesis and theology. It is an essential handbook for students of Luther and the Reformation and a valuable resource for those entrusted today with the ministry of catechesis according to these most durable products of Luther's pastoral heart and pen. One of the most insightful interpreters of Luther and the theological tradition of the Lutheran Church in the latter half of the twentieth century, Peters places Luther's texts before readers in the context of the reformer's own time and of the catechetical tradition that he inherited, put to use, and transformed. Accessible to a broad audience, this volume will significantly enrich the teaching of all who use it to deepen their understanding of two of the most precious gems from Luther's pen, the Small and Large Catechism. Albrecht Peters' work is indispensable for any scholarly treatment of Luther's Catechisms ... The careful study of this volume will yield bountiful fruit in deepened teaching and preaching in the congregation. I know of no other book that comes close to this volume in English. It should be read and regularly consulted by pastors and catechists. This English translation will contribute to the ongoing discussion concerning the content, purpose, and use of catechisms and instruction in the Christian faith, both in the Reformation era and today.

Book Description

"Luther's Large Catechism" was addressed particularly to clergymen to aid them in teaching their congregations. It is divided into five parts: The Ten Commandments, The Apostles' Creed, The Lord's Prayer, Holy Baptism, and The Sacrament of the Eucharist. The Large Catechism typifies the emphasis which the churches of the Augsburg Confession placed on the importance of knowledge and understanding of the articles of the Christian faith. Primarily intended as instruction to teachers, especially to parents, the Catechism consists of a series of exhortations on the importance of each topic of the Catechism. "Luther's Small Catechism" is a catechism written for the training of children. It reviews the Ten Commandments, the Apostles' Creed, the Lord's Prayer, the Sacrament of Holy Baptism, the Office of the Keys and Confession and the Sacrament of the Eucharist. The Small Catechism is widely used today in Lutheran churches as part of youth education and Confirmation.
