About this listen

 In this foundational episode of Peaceable and Kind, host Derek Vreeland dives into the heart of the Nicene Creed—the bold, ancient declaration that Jesus is “one Lord… true God from true God.” As we continue our journey through the Creed, Derek unpacks the opening lines of the Christ section, exploring what it really means to say that Jesus is Lord, King, and the eternal Son of God. With theological insight, personal reflection, and a bit of humor, Derek traces the biblical and historical roots of key phrases like “begotten, not made” and “of one being with the Father,” while making space for mystery, awe, and wonder. Whether you’re exploring the Creed for the first time or revisiting familiar words with fresh eyes, this episode will anchor your faith in the person of Jesus—fully God, fully man, and King of all. Key Takeaways The Nicene Creed affirms Jesus as fully divine and fully human—the foundation of Christian belief about who He is. Saying “one Lord Jesus Christ” boldly proclaims that Jesus, not Caesar or culture, holds ultimate authority in our lives. The title “Christ” means King—Jesus is not just Savior but Ruler, deserving our full allegiance and trust. Jesus is the eternal Son of God—He was not made but shares the same divine essence as the Father. Through Jesus, all things were made—He is both the Word of creation and the King of the cosmos. 🎧 Listen now and explore how the Nicene Creed helps us see Jesus clearly and love him more deeply.
