“It is the easiest thing in the world for us to use words as a kind of abstract truth or principle, to distribute the good news in tabloids of information. Trinity prevents us from doing this. We can never get away with depersonalizing either the gospel or God to make things easier, simpler, or more convenient.
And Trinity is a perpetual reminder that the only way that we can follow in the way of Jesus is by being personal participants-not just by thinking right thoughts or carrying out assigned tasks, but prayerfully and believingly involved in the very lives with whom, name by name, face by face, God is involved.”
~Eugene Peterson, The Jesus Way, 269
