Perichoresis is a composite Greek word that every Christian should know. It means “move about” or “dance around.” The Cappadocian Fathers used it to define the communion of the Trinity as the “Great Dance.” Father, Son, and Holy Spirit flow and frame their lives in a dance of perfect love, and we are invited to add our moves to this dance of the divine. A perichoretic relationship is one where we draw life and energy from this dance with the divine life. Christians have a perichoretic relationship with Christ. That relationship makes you more fully yourself than you could have ever been apart from Him. - LEONARD SWEET & FRANK VIOLA
