A.W. Tozer writes of "the glory of the Trinity."

The author of Christianity Today's "Theology for the Rest of Us | The church needs to recover doctrine from its academic captivity," agrees with Ortberg's assertion that the doctrine of the Trinity has practical application in the daily lives of Christians.

Previous Christianity Today articles about the Trinity include:

Ortberg teaches at Willow Creek Community Church (See CT's previous Willow Creek articles here.)
