Hi friends,
I really enjoyed spending time with the Confirmation group this past Sunday. Our time together focused on the nature of God. We focused specifically on the Trinity (God as 3-in-1). How the Father (Creator), Son (Redeemer), and Spirit (Sustainer) are distinct and different and each part of the oneness of God.
We started the session by wandering the church grounds with a camera and a question. "What do I see that reminds me of God? Where do I see the divine?" Here are the pictures you all took.
The Trinity is one way (a pretty important way in Christianity) to think and talk about God. The idea of the Trinity (the 3-in-1) is a mystery that demonstrates relationship as core to the very being of God (at the center, God is in relationship with God's self in the three persons of Father, Son, and Spirit). This means that all of creation has the ability to reveal God to us AND, how we relate to creation has the ability to reveal God to us. Theologian Richard Rohr speaks of this beautifully in the video below.
Again, I really enjoyed getting to know you all better. Aloha!
