On this Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, Tony Crescio discusses one of two central doctrines of Christianity, doctrine of the Trinity. As Tony explains, discussion of the Trinity requires that we keep in mind that God is ultimately mystery, and therefore whatever is said about God falls far short of Who God Is in Godself. Nevertheless, because God has chosen to reveal Himself to us out of love for us, there is much to be said about Him, which Tony discusses in light of our readings for this weekend.
Mass Readings:
Reading 1: Exodus 34:4b-6, 8-9
Responsorial Psalm: Daniel 3:52, 53, 54, 55, 56
