Hey Bible readers and recappers, it's Tara Lee, and since you're here listening to me on a podcast, I'm so excited to share with you that I'm hosting another podcast. This time, I'll be hosting season one of the Candace Cameron Veray podcast alongside Candace. In season one, we're talking all about the Trinity, Father, Son, and Spirit, and we'll be working through my Bible study called He's Where the Joy is, Getting to Know the Captivating God of the Trinity. You can listen and watch the podcast, even if you don't buy the book or do the Bible study.

But we do think that would be helpful. So if you want to get a copy, you can pick that up at Candice.com. Today, I want to give you a little sneak peek into our first episode, where Candice and I are talking all about the Trinity analogies we've heard and whether they're good, bad, helpful, or harmful. If you like what you hear, and I hope you do, you can watch or listen to the Candace Cameron Veray podcast at Candace.com or wherever you find your podcast. We'll be dropping 12 episodes over the course of a few months, starting tomorrow, November 1st, and I'd love for you to join us.

Here's the snake peak. Dearly like I would really like you. I kind of want to know if you heard any other analogies that good ones or bad ones. And then I'd like you to actually give us some real wisdom thoughts on that. Yeah, so I've heard those. Those are popular analogies.

I've also heard one, it's like an egg. There's the shell. There's the white, there's the yolk, where it's like a clover with three leaves, and it's a clover, but it each has these, so one of the hard things about this is every analogy is going to fall short somewhere, and note every analogy is going to do some kind of injustice to the fullness of who God is

because there's nothing on earth like the Trinity. And so anyway that we try to dumb it down, it is helpful to us, but it can also be harmful because one of the words that is thrown around in Christiandom is heresy. But as it relates to the Trinity, a heresy would be anything that fundamentally denies an aspect of who God is. And so one of the heresies, one of the untruths about who God is, is and this is where the water analogy will be most relatable, I think, is that God is father, son, and spirit, all at the same time. Whereas the water analogy means it's it's can only be water or it can only be steam or it can only be ice in the moment.

And so when we try to transfer and overlay that analogy onto who God is, that's where we get this idea that God, like a lot of people, if they read the story of Scripture, might be inclined to think that God was the Father, and then he became the Son, and then he became the Spirit and then he became the spirit that he shifted modes. Yes. Whereas that's not the story scripture tells. The story scripture tells us that all three simultaneously, eternally exist. And like are all three doing their thing together? I can't run. I know.

It's like insane. And it's just so beautiful because, well, if you think about, if God were singular, and we, well, I'm sure we'll talk about this more throughout the podcast episodes, but if God were just singular, he wouldn't be able to be love because you have to have an other to love. And there has to be an object of your love for YouTube. So God would not be able to be eternally love if he weren't triune, if there weren't three persons of the one true God. He wouldn't be able to, he'd have to, in like, there would be no way for him to be love. You're already blowing my mind. I love this. I can just sit on that.

I love this. I can just sit on that. I hope you enjoyed that little sneak peek into my conversation with Candace Cameron Beret, and I'd love for you to join us as you listen or watch the podcast at Candace.com starting tomorrow, November 1st.
