God gives us different windows through which we can see signs of His presence and activity. We cannot see everything from one window, but we can see something. There are large picture windows, as well as smaller ones. Some windows are missed because they seem ordinary or are smudged. What is happening to us-and within us-shapes what we see. Participating in a Christian community also influences our perspective. The Apostles' Creed, one of the three historic creeds of the Christian Church from the first three centuries, is an "I Believe" statement. My book, Windows, offers spiritual reflections focusing on the various phrases, or "windows," of the Apostles' Creed. It can be used devotionally by individuals, couples, or small groups.
