      The child continues to revise for her Religious Studies exam. She's having a hard time with Christianity coz she has a very literal & mathematical brain. The idea of the Trinity being 3 separate entities and also a whole & Christ being 100% human & 100% God is too much for her.

      I sympathise. I teach it for a living and a lot of my students struggle with it. Best advice is that she doesn’t need to agree with it, and that when she finds herself thinking “this just doesn’t make sense” she should save that for evaluation in her essays.

      My advice is that she remembers the following main points (with these short signposts) - 3 Gospels Baptism The baptism of Jesus is the only time that we see all three parts of the trinity at the same time, and in is written about in three gospels.

      - 1+1+1=1 This means that although each part of the trinity is believed to be completely while, and completely separate from each other, they are all part of one God. (Doesn’t have to make sense to her for her to get marks explaining it)

      JF,FH,SP Jesus Flesh Father Heaven Spirit Power Jesus is god made flesh, the Father is god in heaven, and the Holy Spirit is an invisible power of god. I find my students can usually expand out if they remember these few signposts.

      If she sees a question about the trinity when she reads through the paper she should jot down 3 gospels baptism 1+1+1=1 JF,FH,SP She’s got enough there to write an essay about (assuming she’s doing the gcse on Monday with OCR) Ignore if not helpful.

          Least I could do, I’ve enjoyed your twitter feed for a while. I’m about tomorrow, tweet if she has any questions. Happy to help if I can. I’m not as bright as you so I had to learn it all the hard way, which might help her! Shout if she has questions, genuinely happy to help.
