How exciting is this! I am really looking forward to this new adventure. I pray this journal will help others recover classical theology today.

I testify to anyone who refuses the Spirit that his faith in the Father and the Son, which he cannot have without the simultaneous presence of the Spirit, will become fruitless for him. …Such a person is bereft of true worship. -Basil the Great

Coming soon! It's about time, right? Finally, an issue of Credo devoted to Anselm of Canterbury, one of the best theologians of the Great Tradition. Plus, our graphic designer used a picture I took myself in New York City of a statue of Anselm. credomag.com/subscribe/

How strange it is that *virtue* has nearly disappeared from systematic theologies today. Not so with the Great Tradition. Bavinck has wise words: *We can profit from Aristotelian thought, and without doubt Aristotle's ethics is basically the best philosophical ethics.*

What is the *most excellent goal* of the Lord’s Supper? *Union and fellowship with Christ, and the partaking in all his benefits.* -Synopsis of a Purer Theology

God drowns the devil in the waters of your baptism. For the Fathers, the crossing of the Red Sea is a type of Christian baptism. Basil the Great: *that sea is a type of baptism, creating separation from Pharaoh as this bath also creates separation from the tyranny of the Devil.*

When a church does not have a robust liturgy, those who suffer the most are the children. They conclude that church is a performance on stage they watch, not a gospel they *participate* in. It's a matter of time before they grow up disenchanted with Christianity.

I have been overwhelmed by so many who have reached out personally with love, sharing their stories too. My family and I are so grateful. I am preaching through the Nicene Creed at St Aidan’s Anglican Church. Two messages below ⬇️. If you love orthodoxy, we welcome you. In August
