How can I better understand the Trinity
Last night a friend of mine who was a student of mine called me looking for help. He has been more vocal about his faith in school and has gotten to some great discussions. During these discussions he has realized that he needs to understand God more. But he is not alone. Many Christians cannot defend many basic Christian doctrines.
My friend asked me to email him some sources that can help him better understand what he believes and what he believes it. So here is what I sent him. It is not comprehensive but it will help you understand the Trinity better and hopefully help you to be a better apologist (defender of the faith).

Monergism has a lot of articles but it would be a lot of difficult reading. But here is the link.

Listen to the mp3's. It always helps me to hear how other guys verbalize their understanding of the trinity.
