Description: Christians believe in the Trinity--Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Yet many would be hard-pressed to explain why they believe this, or even where it might be found in Scripture. But that doesn't mean we're blindly following a merely human tradition. It just means we don't know the story of how the early church came to understand the triune nature of our God--or why it matters to believers today. In engaging, accessible prose, The Story of the Trinity relates the settings, characters, and conflicts that led to the creation of the Nicene Creed, a simple yet beautiful statement of faith that helped early Christians express their beliefs. Rather than getting bogged down in dry semantics, this book recounts the dynamic story of how the one God revealed himself as trifold in both biblical testaments. The Trinity emerges from the pages of Scripture itself. Litfin unfolds this core doctrine of the church so that it not only makes sense, but it brings glory to God and expresses the true nature of the gospel. If you've struggled to understand this essential yet often overlooked doctrine, The Story of the Trinity invites you to discover one of the most beautiful expressions of God's love for us, laid out in one of the church's most elegant and edifying creeds.
