The Trinity

My work on this: everything I’ve written and posted on the Trinity is gathered on the Trinity hub. This page collects the best of what others have written.

This is a collection of resources on the doctrine of the Trinity. Most of it came together while Andy Naselli and I were working on our chapter “An Examination of Three Recent Philosophical Arguments against Hierarchy in the Immanent Trinity,” which is why the second section leans toward the debate over the eternal relations of the Father and the Son.

It’s far from exhaustive, and it reflects where the discussion stood when we were writing, so please do let me know in the comments if I’m missing something you’ve found helpful.

It’s organized in 2 parts, each broken out by type of source:

  1. The Doctrine of the Trinity
    • Chapters in Other Books
    • Books
    • Journal and Magazine Articles
    • Dissertations and Theses
  2. Subordination and the Eternal Relations
    • Chapters in Other Books
    • Books
    • Journal and Magazine Articles
    • Conference Papers and Lectures
    • Dissertations and Theses
