Together: A Trinitarian Theology of Teamwork

The Doctrine of the Trinity is taught in both the Hebrew and Greek Scriptures. For example, God said, “Let us make man…” in Genesis 1:26. One person of the Godhead was speaking to the other two. Different scholars hold different views concerning the doctrine of the Trinity. However, Christians believe that God is one but exists in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Unfortunately, very few have written about how the nature of the Trinity impacts ministry and leadership. I have taken much time to research and write about the teamwork principles from the Godhead we can apply in our lives. God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are one perfect team. Because we are created in God’s image, we should follow the example of teamwork from the Holy Trinity. I have written this book to inspire Christian leaders to embrace teamwork spirit just like the Trinity does. I begin by discussing what teamwork is, the difference between teamwork and group work, the nature of God, and the Trinity and teamwork. I then move ahead and discuss how to create effective teams following the example of the divine team, the benefits of teamwork, and finally, the steps you should take in applying the lessons learned in your life and work.
