This book shows how the pilgrimage of faith exploration is a confident journey that involves intellectual freedom, a prophetic passion for justice and peace, and a deep spirituality. Christian confidence is about knowing what you believe and integrating that belief into your whole life. For conservative Christians confidence involves the assurance of arrival at a destination. For me the journey of faith itself is as important as the eventual end. That journey of faith is a constant search for understanding as we are continually confronted with the mystery of God. The book also contains four creeds written by contemporary church groups as they struggled to articulate their faith in a meaningful way. The title "Faith Seeking Understanding" (fides quaerens intellectum) is a phrase coined by Anselm, Archbishop of Canterbury over 1000 years ago.
