Welcome to Season 5 of Down Under Theology, a podcast equipping and encouraging Australian Christians to get down and under the theology impacting the life and mission of the church.

In Season 5 of the show we're celebrating 1700 years since the Council of Nicaea by going through the Nicene Creed line by line. Each episode we'll be talking about what the creed affirms, where those truths are found in Scripture, and how they play out in the life and mission of the church.

In this episode, we introduce the Nicene Creed and talk about the importance of creeds and confessions.
