Summary:The theological works of Gregory of Nyssa have proved fertile ground for modern philosophers or theologians seeking to give a good account of the Trinity. Those eager to give a traditionally grounded account look to theological giants like Gregory for support. One relatively recent example of this is William Hasker’s pro-Social account. While much of Hasker’s work is laudable, this paper argues that his specific account of "person" is incompatible with at least one passage in Gregory.
