A queer reflection for Trinity Sunday

There’s something queer about a Triune God. 

How can one Being also be three Persons? The math doesn’t seem to add up! Some spend years attempting to articulate this theology in a way that doesn’t fall into “heresy”; others give up with a laugh and accept it as a Mystery. Ultimately, the God of the Universe is ineffable, beyond our understanding — yet we are called to seek ever deeper relationship with God, and promised that if we seek, we will find.

When people decry queer identities as nonexistent, overly complicated, or paradoxical, I can’t help but think of our impossible Three-in-One God. I think also about my own gender journey: how I struggled as a child to name what I was feeling because I had no language to describe it; how once I discovered others had words for what I was experiencing, I delighted in every one I could uncover; and how, ultimately, even my favorite words I’ve found to describe myself fall short. 

Words like trans, nonbinary, and genderqueer certainly help others understand and relate to me better — but I’ve learned to be okay with the fact that they might never fully know me, just as I may never fully know them. Turns out that the children of a Mysterious God are micro-mysteries in ourselves!

What I’m left with is this: if we worship a Triune God, why do we try to squeeze the humans made in that Infinite, Ineffable Being’s image into two narrow boxes? And if we celebrate how, in the Incarnation and Resurrection, Divinity burst through the binaries between Creator & Creation, Life & Death, surely the binary between male & female isn’t so insurmountable!

Together, let us pray:

Holy God, whose very existence is relationship, we marvel at your mystery. Protect this day and always those of your children who, like you, defy easy definition and resist restrictive categories. Teach us to recognize your wisdom and holiness shining within them, for only together in all our diversity do we reflect your image. Amen.

Where's the Holy Spirit on Trinity Sunday?

Hello hello! Its been a minute since I posted. Thanks for sticking around! Please enjoy this shorter reflection on the Holy Spirit in Christianity.

Intro Trinity Sunday is a Sunday set aside to celebrate and honor the Christian Theology of God as three in one. Trinity Sunday celebrates trinitarian theology,  the belief in a God made of three distinct persons of the same essence. These three persons are the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. It is a theological choice given great importance by many Christians including one of the lectionaries…

St Petroc’s Day/ Trinity Sunday

Tregeagle. Source: Mazed website

Today is St Petroc’s Day and, in 2023, is also Trinity Sunday.

The sixth century Petroc led an uneventful, if holy, life, founding the monasteries at Padstow and Little Petherick in Cornwall before he died. He achieved legendary status after death as the jailer of the evil Jan Tregeagle, an unpopular magistrate in the early 1600s. The story goes that Tregeagle had sold his soul to the Devil and was eternally damned. However he was nonetheless called as a witness for the prosecution concerning a crooked land deal that, in life, he himself had facilitated. Tregeagle admitted his misdeeds in court but then did a runner to avoid going back to Hell. St Petroc appeared and agreed with Tregeagle he could keep him out of Satan’s clutches if he agreed to carry out a number of endless labours, including emptying the bottomless Dozmary Pool and weaving ropes out of sand on Padstow Beach. Tregeagle tried to escape again, but was run to ground by the Devil’s hell hounds, and was put back to work by Petroc, but this time bound in chains and howling all the while in anguish. Whereas Tregeagle was an historical figure, his story is probably the memory of a Celtic myth of a giant who lived in Dozmary Pool.

Trinity Sunday was once a notable feast day marked by church services, fairs and eating, to celebrate the Holy Trinity - the three aspects of the Christian God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Few Trinity Fairs now remain, with the most notable taking place on the Late May Bank Holiday in Southwold in Suffolk. This may reflect the modern Church’s ambiguity towards the Trinity, adapted as it clearly was from pagan triad gods, as an aid to conversion.

Imitating the Trinity in Our Common Life

The Church exists to participate in the life of God, and to enable others to do the same. We exist to make divine communion not just an inner experience but a public truth. We don’t just feel Love’s eternal dance. We live it. We show it. We share it.

Windows, south nave of León Cathedral on the Camino de Santiago. I was walking instead of writing in May, on pilgrimage along St. Cuthbert’s Way from the Scottish Borders to Holy Island in Northumbria. More on that soon. Meanwhile, I’m preaching the following for Trinity Sunday at my home parish, St. Barnabas Episcopal Church on Bainbridge Island, Washington. Some of it has appeared before on…

Hi guys so about a while ago now I discovered Sad Priest Media after faith consumed my every waking thought and yeah three movies one long show (and several rewatches later) I made a Faith AU where all of them exist in the same capacity!!!

From left 2 rite :

John T. Ward - Faith the Unholy Trinity

Damien Karras - The Exorcist 1973

Eli Sunday - There Will Be Blood

Greg Pilkington - Priest 1994

Paul Hill - Midnight Mass

[ Highly reccomend watching any of these movies / shows btw ESPECIALLY Midnight Mass and Priest (if you’re up for more serious/dark media) made my neurons activate ]
