Is there any way to talk theologically about the Trinity and place?
What might the 'placedness' of creation have to do with God's
triunity? In The Place of the Spirit, Sarah Morice-Brubaker
considers how anxieties about place have influenced Trinitarian
theology - both what it is asked to do and the language in which it
is expressed. When one is nervous about collapsing God into created
horizons, she suggests, one is apt to come up with a model of
Trinity that refuses place. Distance becomes a primary way of
situating the divine persons in relations to each other.
Conversely, theologians who wish to avoid a too-remote God likewise
recruit Trinitarian language to suit that purpose. They, too, use
language that encourages the importance of place, expressing
triunity in terms of coinherence and mutual indwelling. And yet,
suggests Morice- Brubaker, the question has received full-on
attention in other areas of ethics, philosophy, and systematic
theology. The Place of the Spirit calls for Trinitarian thought to
avail itself of those insights and offers some ways in which it may
do so.
