The Trinity

Today at lunch Joshua, out of the blue (which is how he always does things it seems), says to me, "Mommy, there is only one God who is in 3 persons, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost. Right?" So, I just turn and look at him and brilliantly reply, "Yes." He did kind of catch me off guard. I'm sitting there wondering where he learned that from when he goes on to say, "That's what it said on Sumo of the Opera." (Thank the Lord for Veggie Tales!). He then continues the subject by asking what exactly does that mean. Hopefully my answers were sufficient enough to not only answer him but reinforce the concepts in his little mind. You never know when it will be time to answer theological questions with your children (who are under 5 years old). Doesn't it say in 1 Peter that we are supposed to always be ready to give an answer? :o)
