In the 1640’s, in the midst of immense religious and political turmoil, the British Parliament appointed a committee to write a new, uniform standard of belief for the still evolving Church of England.  Completed in 1647, this Westminster Confession would prove foundational to American Christianity and be the sole standard of belief for American Presbyterians until 1967.  Over five sessions we’ll explore the origins of the Confession, what it confesses and its impact.
