Most Moved Mover: A Theology of God's Openness

One of the hottest topics among Christian intellectuals in the last few years has been ""open theology"" essentially, the theory that God has not irrevocably fixed the future. Evangelical theologian Clark Pinnock got the conversation started in 1994 with The Openness of God, which proposed that God responds to humanity's actions in an open, relational way. Pinnock fires another shot in the debate with Most Moved Mover: A Theology of God's Openness, which fleshes out the open view of God, traces it back to the Bible and the early church, and just as importantly responds to critics. Open theology, Pinnock explains, ""asks us to imagine a response-able and self-sacrificing God of changeable faithfulness and vulnerable power."" This is a well-reasoned and passionate defense. Your move, traditionalists. (Aug.)
