There’s something deeply beautiful about this thought from Chris E.W. Green. The gospel isn’t simply about trying harder to live a good life but about being drawn into the life of the Triune God as we receive the life of Christ and, by the Spirit, learn to live from the goodness and love of the Father. Grace doesn’t just change what we believe. It changes how we live, how we love, and how we become a gift to the people around us. That’s the beauty of the gospel: the life of God becoming alive in us for the good of others.

Ambrose, the mentor of Saint Augustine, emphasized that the actions of the Trinity are completely indivisible. #ambroseofmilan #trinitariantheology #globalgraceseminary
Father John Behr writes that rather than viewing the Incarnation as an event confined to the distant past, we should see it “as a possibility that is to be lived as an ever-contemporary reality, here and now in those who respond to him.” The good news of the gospel is that the Incarnation is not merely something Christ did then, but that in Christ, God has entered our humanity and, in Christ, our humanity has been brought into the life of God. The One who took our humanity upon himself continues to make his life known in us: “Christ in you, the hope of glory.” — Colossians 1:27 (RSV) The risen Christ is therefore not distant from us; by the Holy Spirit, the Son makes his home in us and draws us into his own relationship with the Father, so that what Christ has accomplished for us becomes the very life in which we participate: “For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.” — Ephesians 2:18 (RSV) The gospel, then, is not simply that Christ came, but that Christ has come, Christ is with us, and Christ lives in us—and by the Spirit, we are continually being drawn into the communion of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Let us hold fast to the truth today that the Incarnation is not merely history; it is the life of Christ being made present in us, here and now. #fatherjohnbehr #incarnationaltheology #trinitariantheology #globalgraceseminary
Has your journey been shaped more by pressure or by grace? Are you living from the grace you’ve already received—or still striving for something that has already been freely given? What might change if, instead of striving to become accepted, you began each day knowing you already are? We’d love to walk with you as you rediscover the beauty of the gospel of grace.

Here goes another question as we continue The Trinitarian Conversation, where we take time to pause, reflect, and consider what the truth of the Trinity reveals about God. Feel free to read the question, sit with it, and then join the conversation in the comments. #thetrinitarianconversation #trinitariantheology #globalgraceseminary
As we continue The Trinitarian Conversation, were taking time to pause, reflect, and consider what the truth of the Trinity reveals about the God we worship. The Trinity is not simply something we believe about God, rather, it tells us something profoundly beautiful about who God is. And when we begin to see God as He has revealed Himself—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—it changes the way we understand everything from love and relationship to salvation and our own life in Christ. So today, were asking another question worth lingering over. Read the question, sit with it, and then join the conversation in the comments. #thetrinitarianconversation #trinitariantheology #globalgraceseminary

Bill Winn

Dean for Academic Affairs and Assistant Professor of Theology

Bill Winn is a Christian, husband, father, son, brother, nephew, cousin, pastor, teacher, speaker, author, and friend.  He grew up just a few feet above sea level in Chocowinity, NC.  He has been blissfully married to Davina Locke Winn for 27 years.  Together they have two daughters in college, Faith and Abby.

Bill and Davina grew up in the former Worldwide Church of God under the teachings of Herbert W. Armstrong.  In the mid-1990s, leadership within the denomination received a Holy Spirit revelation that led to radical changes in several core doctrines the church had historically held.  Many doctrinal changes were made during this period of transition away from Armstrongism toward more historical orthodoxy.  Most notably, the church officially adopted the doctrine of the triune nature of God.  So impressive was the Father, Son, and Spirit’s grace toward and redemption of the Worldwide Church of God that in 2009, the denomination changed its name to Grace Communion International.

In 2003, Bill and Davina quit their jobs and moved to Fayetteville, NC.  Bill then entered a two-year pastoral internship under Greg Williams (now president of Grace Communion International).  In 2005, Bill and Davina moved their family to pastor the GCI congregation in the Richmond, VA area, where they continue to serve.  After one year of pastoral ministry, Bill experienced a revelation of the radical grace of Jesus’ finished work. In 2007, he began being mentored by Dr. C. Baxter Kruger.

That’s when the party got really good!

The wonderful folks in the congregation were open and willing to take on the task of digging deep into the richness of the authentic gospel of Jesus.

Today, their local church is called Grace Communion Hanover, and they meet every Sunday in Mechanicsville, VA to worship and explore what it means to know the Father, Son, and Spirit as they are known by them.

Bill holds a Master of Pastoral Studies from Grace Communion Seminary and is currently a doctoral candidate at Global Grace Seminary.

Bill is the Lead Pastor at Grace Communion Hanover and the author of the fiction novel, Uncle Pink: Dirt-n-All. He loves hanging out with Davina and his girls, golfing, fishing, playing guitar, and teaching Trinitarian theology.
