I Believe, We Believe: An Illustrated Journey through the Apostles' Creed

Written by Caroline Farey, STL, PhD
Illustrated by Roseanne Sharpe, BA, BDiv

           Here is a book as valuable for adults as it is for children. Using watercolor illustrations—accompanied by clear, practical and informative text— I Believe, We Believe: An Illustrated Journey through the Apostles’ Creed invites the reader to follow a young, newly-baptized Christian into an unfolding exploration of God’s remarkable mystery of love and faithfulness—from Creation, through the life of Christ, to the final Amen, Alleluia of life everlasting.
           Children of all ages will respond to the full-page illustrations depicting the Creed and enjoy the picture clues placed alongside thoughtfully-crafted explanations found on the pages accompanying each illustrated section.
           For parents and teachers—beyond being a treasure-trove of faith to share with a child or class—the book offers a concise, comprehensible “mini-course” on Christian truth, insightful in scriptural, historical, doctrinal and catechetical connections, valuable for personal growth, as well as for passing on the faith to others.
           For centuries the Apostles’ Creed has been an unfailing guide for men and women, girls and boys on their pilgrim journey of faith in Christ—from the waters of Baptism to the gates of the heavenly city—and it still is today!
