Today, Jonathan and James engage in a thought-provoking discussion with Matthew Barrett, a professor of Christian theology and editor of the recently released book On Classical Trinitarianism: Retrieving the Nicene Doctrine of the Triune God. Motivated by the longstanding need to retrieve the classical doctrine of the Trinity, Matthew brought together Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox scholars to contribute to this important work.
In today’s discussion, they explore the challenges posed by social trinitarianism and its implications for contemporary theology, emphasizing the importance of returning to the Nicene understanding of the Trinity.
The Trinity is not “relevant”; it is the foundation of our faith and understanding of God. – Matthew Barrett
Matthew shares insights on the historical context, the relevance of classical theism, and the foundational pre-commitments necessary for a robust understanding of the doctrine of the Trinity.
