The Nicene Creed 11: The Council of Constantinople
As we near the end of our study of the Nicene Creed, we look at the second ecumenical church council, held in 381 in Constantinople. This council expanded the original creed to include a more robust section on the Holy Spirit and the church. Once again, though, the bishops who attended the council faced a heretical threat. This time it was not Arianism, though, but a related yet different position known as Macedonianism.

Join us as this Lent as we explore the historic Nicene Creed, a 4th century Christian faith statement. Each week we launch two new episodes on Wednesdays and Fridays. Our Wednesday episodes focus on the history surrounding the creed and its development. On Fridays we look at the actual content of the creed and consider its implications. Along the way we may be joined by some special guests in bonus episodes. Be on the lookout!
