OK, I've been working all afternoon on trying to find ways of teaching/preaching on the reality of the Trinity in the Christian faith and while I understand it in principle I'm having a tough time of figuring out how to engage people with it in a way that they can make it personal and a part of their lives.
The direction that I'm thinking of taking is to focus upon the concepts of the heresies that made the teaching of the Trinity so important. This way we can see that the Trinity even if we can't fully explain it or understand it holds things in tension and keeps us from falling into the extremes of one aspect of God over and against another.
I'll see how it all turns out Sunday afternoon.
