Who wrote the Nicene Creed? Why did the estimated 300 bishops present at the Council of Nicaea use terms such as “Light of Light... consubstantial... proceeding...” and more to describe God? Is the creed even intelligible to us today in the same sense its early proponents understood it? Does the Nicene Creed have anything constructive to contribute to our context today, to those disillusioned with traditional forms of religion, or those merely interested in spirituality? In Passages: Nicaea, Joshua Heavin and Caleb Wait give an overview of the Council of Nicaea while grappling with its caricatures and criticisms.

1:12:58In this episode of Passages , Joshua and Caleb further explore the line in the Nicene Creed about the Son being "begotten, but not made," and they do so by looking at the remaining theological orations of Gregory of Nazianzus. While doing so they look at the implications that a doctrine such as the eternal generation of the Son has on modern theology: is the Trinity a model for human societies, is the Son functionally eternally subordinate to the Father, what practical application is there in such a doctrine if any?

51:58What happened at the Council of Nicaea? Did Certain Bishops use imperial power to impose a Greek version of Christianity that, today, we call orthodoxy? Did Constantine impose the term homoousios in the Nicene Creed as a way to infuse paganism and Christianity? Can Christians use and apply non-biblical terms and categories without distorting the faith? In this episode, Joshua and Caleb investigate how these questions can be answered and more as they look at the controversy between the pro-Nicene Bishops and their opponents: the Arians.

Passages: Nicaea
Of everything that can or should be said as a statement of Christian belief, why has the church confessed the Nicene Creed for seventeen centuries? Where did this creed come from? What figures or texts in its backstory might provide further context for, or develop the implications of, these articles of faith – some of which are less intuitive than others? Is the theology of this creed even intelligible to us today, who inhabit very different plausibility structures of the modern, secularizing West? Differently, is this creed merely the product of ancient imperial politics, implicated in failures of Christian exploitation and oppression in ages past and present? How might we, in a culture of expressive individualism, tie our deepest convictions about God, self, others, and the world to a symbol of faith given to us, which we entrust to others, participating in something ever ancient and ever new, something that precedes us and will long outlast our fleeting and desperate lives? In 'Passages,' Joshua Heavin and Caleb Wait look at the theological contents of the documents that lead to the Nicene Creed, the personal stories behind them, and how these texts and passages also became the passageways of history, propelling not only the Christian church but all of society down new corridors, new periods, and new eras.…
