The Story of the Trinity: Controversy, Crisis, and the Creation of the Nicene Creed. AN Interview with Dr. Bryan Litfin

📖 Episode Description: In this special 1700-year anniversary conversation on the Nicene Creed, I sit down with author and scholar Dr. Bryan Litfin to discuss his groundbreaking new book The Story of the Trinity: Controversy, Crisis, and the Creation of the Nicene Creed. Together we explore: Why the early church used baptism creeds to shape faith and discipleship. The question: Was Jesus really God, or just a demi-god? How the Nicene Creed gave clarity to the divinity of Christ. What role race and ethnicity played in the early church—were some church fathers Black? The shock persecuted Christians must have felt when Christianity went from outlawed to endorsed at the Council of Nicaea. This episode will help you see the Nicene Creed not as a dusty artifact, but as a living confession of faith that still grounds the Church today.   👤 Guest Bio – Dr. Bryan Litfin Dr. Bryan Litfin is a professor, historian, and author dedicated to helping Christians understand the story of the early church.
