In this lively episode, Todd, Laura, and Kelly respond directly to YouTube comments challenging the Christian doctrine of the Trinity. From bold claims like “the Trinity is logically incoherent” to heartfelt questions about the nature of Jesus and the Holy Spirit, the crew isn’t backing down from the controversy.
They explore where the Trinity shows up in Scripture (even if the word doesn’t), why so many people fiercely defend their version of God, and how faith and understanding are meant to work together, not in opposition. With history, theology, and a touch of sass, this episode doesn’t just revisit the Nicene debates—it invites you into the ring.
Topics Covered:
Is the Trinity biblical or a man-made construct?
Why the Father, Son, and Spirit matter—together
The cultural blind spots in modern theology
How the Tower of Babel plays into religious confusion
What separates Christianity from other world faiths
Notable Sound Bites:
“The Trinity is logically incoherent.”
“Our faith has teeth.”
“You better know you're right.”
Keywords: Trinity, Christianity, God, Jesus, Holy Spirit, faith, scripture, religious debate, theology, spiritual concepts
