Have you ever tried to understand the Trinity… and felt like your brain just hit a wall?
In this episode of Ask A Priest, Father Tim reflects on Rublev’s famous Trinity icon as a way to enter more deeply into the mystery of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. While we can never fully explain the Trinity, this image helps us see the heart of God: the Father who welcomes us home, the Son who gives Himself as the sacrifice, and the Holy Spirit who gives us life.
At the center of the icon is an altar, a chalice, and the image of sacrifice, pointing us to Jesus, the Eucharist, and the love poured out for us. But one of the most beautiful details is the open space at the table.
The Trinity is not just a mystery to solve.
It is a relationship we are invited into.
The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are waiting for you at the table.

Holy Saturday (Holy Week Retreat)
Who would you be if you had never met Jesus?
Holy Saturday is quiet. Empty. Jesus is in the tomb, and the Church feels it, no Eucharist, no celebration, just silence. It’s a strange kind of stillness that invites a deeper question: what would life look like without Him?
In this reflection, Father Tim shares real, honest answers from students, stories of chasing success, struggling with addiction, or searching for meaning in all the wrong places. And it reveals something powerful: without Jesus, we don’t just lose direction, we lose what makes us fully alive.
Holy Saturday reminds us what life feels like without Him. So we never forget what He’s done for us. In the silence today, take a moment to ask yourself: who would I be without Jesus?
