Relationality and Bodiliness

Among the great achievements of those who have thought trinitarianly is the concept of the person as a living whole rather than as a mind encased in matter...To be is not to be an individual; it is not to be isolated from others, cut off from them by the body that is a tomb, but in some way to be bound up with one another in relationship. (Colin Gunton)
