Once you’ve got your arms around the Trinity, it’s easy to dance with the Divine.
The concept of the Trinity can be very difficult to grasp. Transformed by the Trinity, firmly rooted in Scripture and written for laypeople in a straightforward style, helps us get our arms around the Godhead and see ourselves as active participants in the Divine Life.
To help us understand how the three persons of the Trinity relate to one another and how, in turn, we relate to all three, Carol Frances Jegen, BVM, takes us well beyond the traditional terms of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. For example, to fully comprehend the Son, Jegen shows us how to see Jesus through four different lenses: Beloved Son, Servant, the Word Made Flesh, and Lamb of God.
By thoughtfully explaining the various names and attributes of God, Jegen helps us grow in our relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and shows us the great joy we can experience when we “dance” with the Divine.
