The purpose of this research was to discover how What Christians Believe, a twelve-week study based on the Apostles' Creed, influenced the spiritual lives of participants at First United Methodist Church in Eufaula, Oklahoma. The Christian Spirituality Participation Profile (CSPP) was used as a pretest, posttest measure of observed changes in participants. Semi-structured interviews were also conducted with a sample group of participants.

520 $a The purpose of this research was to discover how What Christians Believe, a twelve-week study based on the Apostles' Creed, influenced the spiritual lives of participants at First United Methodist Church in Eufaula, Oklahoma. The Christian Spirituality Participation Profile (CSPP) was used as a pretest, posttest measure of observed changes in participants. Semi-structured interviews were also conducted with a sample group of participants.
520 $a The study demonstrated that persons who study basic Christian doctrine can experience a sense of spiritual growth expressed in stronger commitment to spiritual disciplines. Participants' scores indicated weak participation on the scales used in the CSPP, thus demonstrating a need for spiritual growth. Significant difference in scores from pretest to posttest indicated that studying Christian doctrine and theology has potential to aid spiritual formation. The study also found that church members struggled to think through and articulate Christian doctrine as they were more interested in practical and concrete expressions of belief rather than abstract doctrines.
