"Clear-eyed, creative, and stunningly insightful, these sermons on
the creed will draw readers to a deeper and finer understanding,
certainly, but for some there will also be the luminous discovery
that the creed itself becomes a mysterious doorway into prayer,
into an encounter with the mystery to which the words bear
witness."
--Mark McIntosh, Professor, Loyola University Chicago
"As Dean of Jesus College, John Hughes proved to be someone whom
many wanted to befriend recognizing the faith on which his life was
built. Focusing on the Creed, this sermon series gives an inspiring
insight into that faith, being broad enough to encompass the main
tenets of belief but with gem after gem of deep insight. The book
is a source of great joy and fulfillment."
--Ian White, Master, Jesus College, Cambridge
