Know your own faith: the Trinity
Before you defend the Trinity to a Muslim friend, can you describe it in three plain sentences? This module makes sure.
Starting prompt
If a Muslim friend asks, 'Do Christians worship three gods?' — describe the Trinity in three sentences without using technical jargon.
Practical disciplines
- Read John 1:1-14, Matthew 28:19, 2 Corinthians 13:14, and 1 John 4:8 in one sitting.
