<p>"An insightful examination of a central statement of the Christian faith . . . those who seek a deeper understanding of the creed will find this book substantial." —<i>National Catholic Reporter</i></p> <p>"Nicholas Lash has given us the gift of a creative and evocative reading of the Apostles' Creed." —<i>Theology Today</i></p> <p>"Fortunately for us, Professor Lash has a gift for simplifying some of the most complex and formal aspects of the discussions about language and reality as they may relate to theology. His discussion about interpretation is especially helpful both to the unintiated and those familiar with current issues." —<i>Pro Ecclesia</i></p> <p>"Lash's reading of the Apostles' Creed is a welcome, insightful corrective to commentaries that stop with an explanation of the text." <i>—Worship</i></p> <p>"With characteristic verve and epigrammatic wit, Nicholas Lash has crafted a tantalizing reflection on the trinitarian dynamic of reality." <i>—Journal of Religion</i></p> <p>"Only a first-rate thinker and stylist could achieve such a union of substance and brevity. Lash is outstanding in both the depth of his thought and the clarity of his writing." — <i>Commonweal</i></p>
