Passages: Nicaea
Who wrote the Nicene Creed? Why did the estimated 300 bishops present at the Council of Nicaea use terms such as “Light of Light... consubstantial... proceeding...” and more to describe God? Is the creed even intelligible to us today in the same sense its early proponents understood it? Does the Nicene Creed have anything constructive to contribute to our context today, to those disillusioned with traditional forms of religion, or those merely interested in spirituality? In Passages: Nicaea, Joshua Heavin and Caleb Wait give an overview of the Council of Nicaea while grappling with its caricatures and criticisms.
Good for both the mind and the heart

I’ve learned so much in this deep dive into the early church, but I really appreciate how Joshua and Caleb have taken all this information and showed why it matters. At many times I’ve had to put my work down and just listen and reflect on the amazing truths, quotes, and reflections they share. A great podcast for all sorts of Christians. There’s something for everyone here.

I have learned a lot so far as I slowly catch up on the podcasts. I would love to see a bibliography for each episode so I could see the source material and learn even more.
Outstanding!

Joshua and Caleb, as well as everyone involved with Mere Orthodoxy, have put together a riveting and rich look into the Nicene creed and the context surrounding it. Professionally produced, absolutely edifying.
Excellent

I look forward to this every week. It is thoughtfully researched and well produced. The hosts not only explore the people, ideas, and writings surrounding the Creed, but also show its relevance for theological and cultural issues today. Wide ranging and always engaging. It swings for the fences.
