Back cover copy: "Many Christians ignore the doctrine of the Trinity, assuming it to be irrelevant for daily life. But it is a mystery worth grappling with, because it is central to our beliefs and fundamental to the working out of our faith - the Trinity is the heartbeat of Christianity. "The theme for the 2013 Keswick Convention was The Transforming Trinity: Knowing the Triune God. During the three weeks of Convention we looked at the saving purposes of God the Father, how we can follow the Son and walk in the life-changing power of the Holy Spirit. We explored what it means to participate in the mission of the Trinity as individuals and as church communities. "This Year Book includes a selection of talks given during the 2013 Convention: Bible teaching from Charles Price, John Risbridger, Paul Williams, Mike Hill, Paul Mallard, Richard Condie, Rico Tice and Peter Baker which showcases the inexhaustible riches of the Trinity and gives fuel for our faith."
