Unravelling with Tom & Pete

Open Theism (with Mandy Fowler)


Listen Later

Mandy's back! Yay!

She introduces Open Theism to us, a theological idea that initially sounds strange or even radical in the ways it challenges the assumptions of "Classical Theism", but has some really fascinating implications on many other theological ideas we've talked about in this podcast. God's will/control, atonement theory, the problem of evil, and whether God is truly loving...Open Theism can give us things to think about in all those areas.

(If you didn't understand half of the terms in that last paragraph...fear not! Mandy is here! She helps us sort through all these ideas and make sense of them all.)

She draws extensively from a book called "The Most Moved Mover" by Clark H Pinnock: https://www.amazon.com/Most-Moved-Mover-Theology-Openness/dp/0801022908
