Learning Together on the Square is an informal but very deliberate time of teaching.
We are currently engaged in a 9 week study through the Apostles' Creed, considering line-by-line both the theological and practical implications of this historic document. The Apostles' Creed contains the essentials of the Christian faith and is the oldest existing creed we have (dating back to the 2nd century), and churches of different stripes use it regularly to profess the faith of Christendom.
We will be investigating what different phrases in the creed mean, and will spend some time discussing what is perhaps the Creed's most controversial line, "He (Christ) descended in to hell."
This study is open to all and we hope you will join us on the Centerville Town Square at Studio D.

The Apostles' Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
the Maker of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord:
Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost,
born of the virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried;
He descended into hell.
The third day He arose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven,
and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost;
the holy catholic church;
the communion of saints;
the forgiveness of sins;
the resurrection of the body;
and the life everlasting.
