The Thanksgiving holiday is a terrific time to talk theology. But some theologies make more sense when offering thanks to our loving Lord.

I’ve come to believe that Augustine’s theology fails on the central issue of Christian faith: love.

One of the more influential and controversial Evangelical theologians in recent decades passed away Sunday afternoon, August 15, 2010.

My recent book, The Nature of Love, concludes with comments about what theologians call “eschatology.” The eschatology I offer coheres with my Essential Kenosis theology, which I propose in the book’s last chapter.

Mission is risky business. It means taking chances and being susceptible to failure. But God seems the biggest risk-taker of all!

Open theology offers an impressive theological framework. But Open theology has a problem with the problem of evil.

I received sad news in an email recently: Clark Pinnock is suffering from Alzheimer’s disease.

I sometimes hear the argument that we should not speculate about the attributes of God’s nature. Overall, I don’t find this argument convincing.

In a previous blog entry, I noted many of the theological beliefs that open and relational theologians affirm. I now identify three characteristics of Evangelically-oriented open and relational thinkers.

Many Christians believe God does not necessarily relate to creatures. God at one time (or before time) existed alone – albeit as Trinity. Yet these same Christians believe they can count on God to love them. I don’t think there are good grounds to believe both ideas.
