What does the Trinity have to do with missions? As it turns out . . . everything.
Too often, we put theology in one part of the Christian life and missions in anotherâand they never meet. A doctrine like the Trinity belongs in the âintellectualâ realm, while missions belongs with the âpracticalâ parts of life. Or so we think. But is that really the way it should be?
Michael Reeves wants you to understand that the doctrine of the Trinity has everything to do with the practice of missions. When a Christian sees the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as divine persons who are so full of love that it radiates and overflows into creationâand into the lives of human beingsâour perspective on missions is radically changed. No longer is missions an obligation or a drudgery. Instead, realizing the abundance of love that goes forth from God, we who have received and delighted in such love are motivated to go forth as well.
Let the radiance of Godâs triune beauty capture your heart. Then Godâs great mission wonât be a chore, but will naturally overflow from your joyous delight in Him.
