We Believe is a series of eight studies on the primary doctrines of the Christian faith as confessed in the Nicene Creed and received in the Reformed tradition. The series title is drawn from the first words of the Creed, which introduce what has become the classic confession of the Christian faith. Series volumes examine the biblical foundations of the church's faith, trace its development (especially in the Reformed tradition), and apply its truths to the worship, life, and mission of the church today.
