in Catechesis

The Divine Liturgy: The Athanasian Creed

Part of the Liturgy: Post-Communion Collect (1)

Summary: This class was mostly Q&A on the previous week’s sermon, on why the Athanasian Creed spells out Christ’s two natures at such length. The ancient errors it guards against deny either that Jesus is true God or that He is true man – and both matter: only as true man could He suffer and die for us, and only as true God does that suffering and death save the whole world.

Join us each week after Divine Service (~10:30am) for coffee, treats, and a study of a part of the Liturgy. Join us as you are able. Children and adults welcome alike. No advance preparation is required.

We gather regularly for instruction in the Word of God, not simply to learn knowledge about God, but that our faith in Jesus Christ might be strengthened, and that we might live by that faith in our lives. We call this kind of teaching “catechesis.” Receiving our Lord’s teaching from the Holy Scriptures is a way of life for us, young and old alike, from the cradle to the grave. Our Lord is with us wherever His Word is faithfully taught and received.
