The Apostles' Creed: Its Necessity, History, Legacy

RTS Washington, D.C. Faculty Podcast 2020

October 13, 2020

Episode 30: In this milestone episode (our 30th!) of The Faculty Podcast we introduce a new logo, new music, and a new series! This week we begin a phrase by phrase discussion of The Apostles' Creed. In this episode we discuss why creeds are necessary for the Christian Church, their unifying function, and the way in which they encourage both creativity and orthodoxy.

Note to our listeners: this series on the creed will be our "regular" programming, interspersed between special guests and one-off episodes.

Episode 40: Continuing our series through the Apostles’ Creed, today we talk about the other side of the incarnation: the Son was not only “conceived of by the Holy Spirit“ but also “born of the Virgin Mary.” What’s the significance of this uniquely miraculous birth? We touch on other miraculous births in the Bible, the Magnificat, Mary as theotokos, and Jesus’ qualifications as our Savior. Merry Christmas!

Episode 39: We return to our series on the Apostles’ Creed, rounding into the Christmas season with a discussion of the Spirit's work in the conception, birth, life, and death of our Lord. The Spiritual conception of Jesus is more than just proof that he is a Divine person—it does that, but it is also the climactic moment in which God fulfills his promise to be with his people in a new and and perfect way.
