Sermon for Trinity Sunday
As your bulletin cover points out, today is Trinity Sunday. The one day a year that is dedicated to a theological proposition. While there are multiple passages in the Christian scriptures that refer to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, nowhere is it explained or expanded upon. In fact, you may be surprised to learn that the idea of the Trinity was controversial for several centuries before being settled on after multiple councils of the Church in the fourth and fifth centuries. In the end, the idea that God is one God, who exists in the three persons, continues to this day to be something that many, if not most of us, struggle with.
