This video expressed the idea behind the "I Believe" statements featured in the Apostles' and Nicene Creeds. These repeated statements represent our unending acceptance of God and His teachings. Just as we find comfort in our acceptance of God, so the young woman in the video finds comfort in her acceptance of the figure who has been pursuing her throughout the video. In the end, God wants us to accept Him and have a relationship with him.
This is the first video in the VCAT series. The VCAT is a Video Catechism for Teens produced by Outside da Box Productions in collaboration with the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston. This video is based on "The Hound of Heaven" by Francis Thompson, a poem which describes God's pursuit of mankind to a hound pursuing a hare. This metaphor is used to describe God's unending love and pursuit of His people. Often, we go through life looking for something but not necessarily knowing what it is we are looking for. It is only when turn to God that we realize He is what we were searching for. This video expressed the idea behind the "I Believe" statements featured in the Apostles' and Nicene Creeds.
