I recently had to write an essay for school discussing the signifiance of a Trinitarian theology for the life and mission of the Church. I thought I would include it here for all to read.

A Splendid and Worthwhile Engagement
| Far back in the midst of modern time, long before the dawn of The Next Reformation, in the great and glorious days of enlightenment thinking, life was wild, rich, and on the whole, foundationalist. In those days, caramels were sweet, wine was cheap, boys were real boys, girls were real girls, and people, as a whole, were far more committed to talking about relationships than to doing them. |  |
In those enlightened days, there were two remarkably peculiar, highly analytical, philosophically-minded good friends who, based on the not-so-bold assertion that they were indeed alike in every way, endearingly referred to themselves as two peas in a pod. Having claimed absolute equality regarding their thoughts and feelings about life, the universe, and everything, they embarked on a journey to discover the most ultimate question of all, the question that would tease their intellects for many long days to come. The question, of course, was, “What was the true meaning of love? Had they found it? And if they had, what was to become of it, if anything at all?” And thus began the quest for the ultimate answer to the ultimate question of life, love, and everything.
Fortunately, for those short-winded readers of this long-winded narrative, the story shall be summed as follows:
These two did, in fact, begin to discover the true meaning of love and found themselves wonderfully wrapped up in it. What became of this whole ordeal was, indeed, a very splendid and worthwhile engagement!
