About this listen

 In this episode of Peaceable and Kind, host Derek Vreeland kicks off a brand-new mini-series exploring the Nicene Creed, beginning with its opening line: “We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, of all that is seen and unseen.” With warmth, clarity, and wisdom, Derek reflects on what it means to believe in one God in a world of competing idols and spiritual confusion. Drawing from personal stories, ancient Christian belief, and contemporary relevance, this episode helps us reconnect with foundational truths: God is enough. God is Father. And God is our Creator. Derek also addresses how the Church can lovingly disagree about how God created the world while staying united in the essential truth that God alone is the Creator of all things. Key Takeaways The Nicene Creed defines the essentials of the Christian faith and brings unity to believers across denominations. Belief in “one God” affirms God’s sufficiency and stands against modern-day idols of money, power, and pleasure. Jesus reveals that God is not distant or abstract, but personal—our Father. God is the Maker of all that is seen and unseen—creation is not accidental, and every person bears the image of God. Christians may disagree on the age of the earth or the timeline of creation—but all agree that God is Creator. Whether you’re new to the Nicene Creed or seeking to deepen your faith, this episode offers a thoughtful starting point that centers your beliefs on the character and nature of God. 🎧 Listen now and be grounded in the faith that has united Christians for centuries.
