Thanks for the post.
FWIW, I’ve found the issue of the trinity is best understood by simply recognizing God Provides.
He reveals Himself in three persons.
We don’t need to read anything more into that revelation, but simply need to comprehend bit by bit exactly what He reveals to us in each of those revelations.
God didn’t provide us with a Library of Congress and encyclopedias of quantum mechanics in order for us to understand everything in His Creation, so why would we be so arrogant as to think we would comprehend Him in a fashion we comprehend worldly things, independent of simple faith through Him?
Keep it simple. He has seen from eternity past the best way to reveal to us about His essence and nature in the fashion in which He has.
I suspect any challenge is comprehending the Trinity is better met by the wondrous awe we should instead afford Him, in simply studying what He has revealed and comprehending those aspects of the person in which He reveals Himself, instead of getting wrapped up in man made doctrines built more upon rationalism and empiricism, than first upon faith through Him.
Yes. He provides for us through each member. Visually, I have found the pretzel to be an easy way to teach the Trinity to children.

You make an excellent point! Scientists can't explain the universe. It is indeed arrogant for man to think he can comprehend the mind of God.
