“[I]n trinitarian worship when we offer prayer to Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, we are deeply aware that we do not have a single listener. We are praying into a threefold society of listeners. Moreover, as Romans 8 reveals, when we pray into the triune life, we are praying into a center of hospitality. As we pray the Spirit intercedes for us. As we pray, Jesus Christ intercedes for us. The triune God makes room for us in this wonderful way.”
