Creed and Personal Identity

More about the book

Focusing on the theology of the Apostles' Creed, David Harned presents the idea that the creed serves as a foundational image for self-understanding, emphasizing the concept of being a "child of God." He argues that the creed plays a crucial role in personality formation and character development, moving beyond its traditional interpretations as merely a statement of beliefs or a loyalty oath. Through eight chapters, Harned invites readers to reconsider the creed's significance in shaping their identity and moral character.
