This important book, by the twentieth century's preeminent Christian theologian, explains the Apostle's Creed as a foundation of the Christian religion. More accessible than some of Karl Barth's other works, it provides an entry point into the thinking of Barth for all readers. In the foreword, Robert McAffee Brown notes that "it is little short of amazing, reading Credo in light of the full Church Dogmatics, how much of the latter is here in nuce in this small book. The dissatisfaction with natural theology,' the centrality of Christology, the sheer givenness' of the gift of grace to the undeserving these and other themes that Church Dogmatics spells out over hundreds of pages, confront us here in a paragraph, a page, a chapter, in such a way that we discover that for Barth the tasks of exegete and preacher, scholar and proclaimer, teacher and witness, are all combined in one vocation."
