At that meeting, church leaders crafted a statement known as the “Nicaean Creed” that is still recited by many Christians today. In this podcast episode, Dr. David K. Bernard explains what happened at the Council of Nicaea and why it still matters 1,700 years later.

Thank you for this ministry. I appreciate Dr. Bernard's wisdom and knowledge when addressing these questions. I am learning how to better explain and reason the topics that are so frequently discussed when sharing the gospel.

could you guys talk about the altar/altar call and its origins? Bible verses that this originated from perhaps? A lot of churches don't have this experience.

God bless you all.

Grateful
