Description

In this episode, we look at the first confession of faith in the Nicene Creed: “I believe in one God, the Father almighty.” This statement of monotheism – the credo – finds parallels in the shema and the shahada, the respective confessions of Judaism and Islam. What are the similarities and differences in how these three Abrahamic religions conceive of God and His relation to humanity? Is the Christian conception God distinct from the other two, and in what ways? We explore these questions and more with guest speakers from each of the three faiths.
