Comments on: Assumptions about God http://www.servingbread.net/2008/01/10/assumptions-about-god Thoughts, Musings, Reflections, and Ramblings of a campus minister, father, husband, and a Jesus-follower Fri, 21 Nov 2008 15:59:37 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Tyler Waston http://www.servingbread.net/2008/01/10/assumptions-about-god#comment-8947 Tyler Waston Sat, 12 Jan 2008 00:00:19 +0000 http://www.servingbread.net/2008/01/10/assumptions-about-god/#comment-8947 Well said, Eddy. It upsets me that so many Christians say studying our theology and doctrines and where they came from is too heady, too dry, or even unnecessary. I always held the idea that God is Triune, but really it was because that's what I always heard. I had no idea what the doctrine of the Trinity meant or how Christians understood its effect on our lives until I sat down and studied some theology. There is so much that we can learn from our sisters and brothers who wrestled with what it meant to be a follower of Christ in their day. What class are you taking, by the way? Well said, Eddy.
