ST. MICHAEL CATHOLIC CHURCH, GARLAND, TEXAS May 30, 2010

God is Three Persons in One God. In seminary we studied the doctrine of the Holy Trinity for a whole semester, read several books, but in the end, it was still a mystery. Some people might be tempted to downplay the Trinity because of its mystery. Or maybe regard it as a theological point that has no practical application. That would be a mistake. The revelation of the triune nature of God is not an idle fact among facts. God has revealed Himself to us as He really is out of love for us. He intends to share with us everything which is His – how marvelous! Father Joseph
