TOKENS OF TRUST by Archbishop Rowan Williams
"What are the essentials of Christian belief? Exploration of this question produced the Apostles Creed - a basic statement of faith which is still held in common by all the worlds major Christian bodies. In his book Tokens of Trust, Archbishop Rowan Williams argues that the creed is not simply a theological check-list for regulating belief. Instead it shows us who and what we can trust in this world and it offers us a glimpse of another world in which our lives can be utterly transformed."
