In this episode of World Class, Dr. J. Jayakiran Sebastian joins us to reflect on his article “Nicene Faith – Towards a Contemporary Reformed Reading.” Together, we revisit the Council of Nicaea—1700 years ago—and explore why it still matters for the church today.
From empire and power shaping theology in the 4th century to the ongoing struggles of churches in Asia with identity, denominationalism, colonial legacies, economic disparity, and the quest for unity, Dr. Sebastian helps us see how reaching back to Nicaea can provide wisdom for moving forward.
What does it mean to live out Nicene faith in contexts marked by marginalization and pluralism? How can the church reclaim an ecumenical vision of unity while remaining faithful to Christ? Join us for a conversation that connects history, theology, and the realities of the global church today.
