God is a Trinity of Persons in an eternal exchange of love. The Father loves the Son, the Son reciprocates that love, and the Holy Spirit is the Love between the Father and the Son.
We are made in the image of God, meaning that we are made for communion with God and each other.
Being made in the image of God also means that we have unalienable dignity as persons that no other creature has.
