Is the doctrine of The Holy Trinity the truth that accurately describes God, or is it a trap that can lead us into a harmful form of rigid thinking and idolatry?
The answer, in my opinion, is yes (in good Lutheran, paradoxical fashion).
This post offers visual resources for the Revised Common Lectionary and the Narrative Lectionary for June 4, 2023. This is Trinity Sunday. It is the week that the liturgical calendar sets aside to address the Christian doctrine of God’s essence as three-in-one. The RCL offers some texts to help. The NL skips it altogether and launches a four-week series on Isaiah.
This Sunday is Holy Trinity Sunday. I love thinking and teaching about the Trinity. It was the core theological framework of my PhD dissertation. If you would like to get an introduction to the Trinity, I invite you to CLICK HERE to view my guide to the Trinity at my website. You can preview the PowerPoint there before you download it. Blessings on your Holy Trinity Sunday!
