Council of Nicaea

The Importance of Councils

Robert Loomis explains some church history

Today’s service featured lay leader Robert Loomis helping us understand the role of key figures in church history, people like Constantine, Arius, Athanasius, Ambrose and Augustine. He also helped us understand how the Council of Nicaea helped the church express its beliefs about the Trinity and settle its long running dispute over how to set the date to celebrate Easter. Robert’s purpose is that we would understand how church Councils help the church to deliberate and ultimately grow over time.

Karen Ahijevych gives an inspiring children’s moment about having Christmas in our hearts every day.

Pastor Kelvin and JoAnne had a one week break. They will be back next week talking about how to adjust our practice of faith to meet the challenges of this winter season.
