This week we will be discussing the origin and history of the Nicene Creed.  We will be using our textbook The History of the Church.  We will be  reading about the growth of Christianity in the fourth century as well as the many factors that played an important role  in the spread of Christianity.  During this point in history, the Fathers of the Church found it necessary to comprise a statement of Christian beliefs, otherwise known as the Nicene Creed.
