The Nicene Creed 9: Coming Back From the Brink

Following the rulings of the Council of Nicaea and the subsequent exile of prominent clergy, it would have appeared as if the Arian heresy was over and done with. However, the Arians not only returned from exile, many of them also returned to power within the church. This time, though, they had a powerful ally in the new Roman emperor. This week we explore how Arianism returned from the brink of death to become a dominant force within the church in the mid-300s.

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!
