In the winter and spring of 2011, the clergy of Saint Thomas took up the Apostles’ Creed, line by line, in a sermon series preached at Sunday Evensongs. Reading or listening to all of the sermons in the series is an excellent introduction to (or review of) the fundamental beliefs of the church.
Text from Apostles’ Creed
I believe
Fr Mead
I believe in [one] God,
Fr Austin
The Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
Fr Spurlock
And in Jesus Christ
his only son our Lord,
Fr Andrew
Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost,
born of the Virgin Mary
Fr Austin
Suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried.
Fr Mead
He descended into hell.
Fr Daniels
The third day he rose again from the dead.
Fr Austin
He ascended into heaven
Fr Spurlock
And sitteth on the right hand
of God the Father almighty.
Fr Mead
From thence he shall come
to judge the quick and the dead.
Fr Fletcher
I believe in the Holy Ghost,
Fr Daniels
The holy catholic Church,
Fr Mead
The communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
Fr Spurlock
The resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.
Fr Austin
