Do you have the Apostles’ Creed memorized? Can you recall how many times you’ve probably recited it in worship in your church growing up, and still do today? It’s a beautiful Creed passed down through church history all the way up to the present time.

Sitting down together are Dr. Cornelis Venema and Dr. J. Mark Beach to help us gain further insight into this important document and this particular article in it.
