Summary
There are two fundamental doctrines every Catholic needs to understand; the Trinity and the Incarnation. Today, I share a fun RCIA talk that I recently gave to help you understand the very identity of God. I delve into salvation history in Scripture to demonstrate how the incarnation shows us the eternal self-giving love of the Trinity.
Snippet from the Show
The mystery of the Incarnation points us to the eternal self-giving love of the Trinity.

| 0:53.9 | context of explaining who Jesus is and what the Trinity is. |
