Description:

Trinitarian Ecclesiology is often neglected in the West. An understanding of the triune nature of God is crucial if the Church is to engage with its new context of spiritual tourism. This book explores a phenomenological understanding of the Trinity and the implications for building community in our overly consumptive and individualistic culture. Once we understand the Trinity as an event and as the inspiration for a higher expression of human relationships, then we are challenged to live this way as 'human-becomings'. Christians then have a constructive basis for a positive engagement with our world drawing on a deep understanding of the Christian God.
