Heaven Meets Earth: A 40-Day Journey of Transformation Through the Nicene Creed
About this ebook
“We believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth….”
And so the Nicene Creed begins with these powerful words of declaration and belief, words handed down through history for Christians across the centuries to affirm and to hold, to repeat and to remind. The Creed has bolstered the faith of many and still speaks to us today. When our footing fails or our faith needs a refresh, these ancient words can tether us to foundational truths.
In Heaven Meets Earth, philosopher-artist Josh Nadeau, creator of Sword and Pencil, invites you to explore the Nicene Creed in this 40-day devotional journey of transformation for everyday saints. With his iconographic-style art and his insightful words, Josh brings the traditional to the present day in this visually inspired exploration of the faith.
Each daily entry of this spiritual journey includes:
- A short phrase from the Creed to meditate on
- Thoughtful reflections on what the words still mean today
- A beautiful piece of full-color art inspired by the Creed
- A dedicated prayer to bring your thoughts to God
Whether during the Lent season or any time of the year, step into an ancient, living faith with Heaven Meets Earth, and embrace the beauty of belief with Josh’s stunning visual art alongside this historic Christian confession of faith. Prepare your heart and your mind for transformation as you follow in the footsteps of the faithful multitude who have gone before.
