We probably need to normalize it like we do with justification. Every big word is strange when it's abnormal. So, talking about it more can be a big start. Then I think remembering that we are part of a church that extends for 2,000 years will give us a bigger interest in our shared past.
I think most people don’t know what eternal relations mean because we assume a psychological definition of person. So it feels impossible to teach it at a lay level
So important. How can we revive the teaching of eternal relations of origin in our normal discipleship practices?

In short, just talk about it more.
When I first learned of eternal relations the trinity became so much more vibrant to me. Why is it still so rarely taught at a lay level? Great post.
