Martin Luther once said: “The world is like a drunken peasant. If you lift him into the saddle on one side, he will fall off on the other side.” These are the chronicles, thoughts, and questions of a Lutheran pastor just struggling to stay on his theological horse, and not fall off one side or the other.

How Would You Draw the Trinity?
Just surfin' around a little tonight and found this picture on the discardingimages blog. It is from a 14th century Swabian Bible. I'm not really sure what to make of it, other than simply to say it is interesting. The artist was definitely trying to avoid the common pitfalls of modalism and tritheism that are often fallen into when trying to describe or picture the Trinity. It certainly is unique!
