    Though the Nicene Creed is regularly recited in weekly church services, few understand its historical origins and connections to Scripture and key Christian doctrines. 
 
This volume bridges the gap, providing an accessible introduction that explains how the Creed is anchored in the Bible and how it came to be written and confessed in the early history of the church. The authors show how the Creed reflects the purpose of God in salvation, especially in relation to Christians' divine adoption as sons and daughters, leading to glorification. Each chapter includes sidebars highlighting how the Creed has been received in the church's liturgy. 
 
Professors, students, clergy, and religious educators will benefit from this illuminating and edifying guide to the Nicene Creed.

    In "Awakening the Prodigal Church: Calling the Ecclesia to Rise Up," esteemed pastor Phillip Fields delivers a compelling clarion call to the slumbering Church. Drawing from the profound messages embedded within the first three chapters of Revelation, Fields ignites a fervent plea for the Church to awaken from its spiritual lethargy and reclaim its devotion to Christ. With the urgency of a prophet, Fields implores believers to shed their indifference and lukewarm attitudes, urging them to repent from their tolerance of sin and return to the radiant glory ordained by God. Through his impassioned prose, Fields paints a vivid picture of the perilous fate awaiting a Church adrift from its foundational principles.  
	With over four decades of leadership in the body of Christ, Pastor Phillip Fields combines biblical wisdom with pastoral insight, offering a timely and prophetic message for today's Church. "Awakening the Prodigal Church" is not merely a book; it's a heartfelt reflection of the Father's longing for His people—a poignant warning and a stirring call to rekindle the flames of their first love.  
	Be prepared: reading this book will stir your soul with conviction and set ablaze a renewed fervor for spiritual awakening.
