Homily for Trinity Sunday, May 30, 2021

It is a fool’s errand to try to explain the Trinity, since it simply cannot be done. In fact, I think the deeper we go in our prayer life, in our spiritual life, the more we realize that we know less and less about God. God is a mystery, so rather than trying to “solve” God, what if we simply entered into the mystery and enjoyed it.
