In this episode of We Are Vineyard, Caleb Maskell talks with Glenn Packiam about his new book on the Nicene Creed. Glenn shares how the Creed became an anchoring point for him and his church during a season of crisis, as well as what it provides to spiritual seekers. This is the first half of a two-part conversation, so come back next week to hear the rest!
