Meditations on the Apostles' Creed: "I believe even when I say, 'I am greatly afflicted'" (Ps 116:10)
The book is not a classic novel or a theological work, but a series of spiritual meditations, dialogues, and "speeches" that the author claims were inspired to her from above.
Well-researched, concise, and provocative, the book by renowned religious historian S. G. F. Brandon remains influential in biblical criticism, inspiring authors such as Reza Aslan. It shows how history is mostly written by the victors.
The book is written simply, warmly, and directly. While critical, it is never hostile. It is intended to stimulate dialogue and encourage bishops to better understand the daily lives of ordinary believers.
The book conveys the experience of the author, who has been volunteering in prisons for 30 years, reading the Bible with prisoners, praying, talking, and advising them on forgiveness, repentance, and life changes.
