Embodied Belief: from Creed to Community, 2025-2026
Do you encounter tension, disagreements, or ethical challenges in your everyday life? Does your “Sunday faith” ever feel disconnected from the rest of your week—perhaps a bit impractical, or even impossible to live out in the real world? Who exactly is this God we believe in, and how should that belief shape our ordinary routines, our response to pain and suffering, our relationships, and our communities?
If these questions resonate with you, you’re not alone—and they’re exactly what WBS will be exploring in the coming year.
This year marks the 1700th anniversary of the Nicene Creed—a historic confession of faith that may sound unfamiliar, yet has united Christians across centuries, continents, cultures, and traditions. Together, we’ll discover that the Creed is far more than a statement of doctrine; it is a declaration of trust in a living God who continues to call us to embody our faith in every area of life.
Who is this God we believe in? What has he done? And what does it mean to live as his people today? We’ll begin by exploring what the Creed reveals about the Triune God and the nature of belief itself.
From there, we’ll turn to two snapshots of early Christian community: the book of Philemon and the letters of John. These short but profound texts (some so brief they lack chapter numbers!) show churches wrestling with many of the same issues we face today—tension and disputes over theological and behavioral concerns —while calling us to sacrificial love, unity, forgiveness, and discernment across lines of class, status, and perspective.
As we journey from confession to practice, we’ll reflect together on what embodied belief looks like—in our relationships, in our communities, and in our daily lives as the family of God.
