We Believe: A New Book from Ligonier Ministries
3 Min Read
Christians in every generation must know what they believe. Only then can God’s people declare His truth with clarity and conviction in a confused world.
Throughout the centuries, the church has written summaries of the Bible’s teaching for this reason. Creeds proclaim essential Christian truths, confessions outline the core doctrines of Scripture, and catechisms instruct believers in the knowledge of God. These are invaluable tools to keep us grounded in God’s Word so that we may “contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints” (Jude 3).
New from Ligonier Ministries, We Believe is a collection of historic Christian creeds, confessions, and catechisms from the early church to the post-Reformation era. This volume helps readers glean biblical wisdom from the past and guard it for future generations.
