Are you ready for the greatest three days of 2012? You know Jan 31-Feb 2 in sunny SoCal where the Emergent Village Theological Conversation will take place! Part of getting ready for three days of Process & Emergent theological fun will be signing up & then getting the preparatory reading under your belt. Here are the books that will be used to frame our theological fun. Get’em, read’em, mark’em, and come ready to discuss them with the authors and your theological comrades!
* John Cobb’s Spiritual Bankruptcy: A Prophetic Call to Action & The Process Perspective II
* Philip Clayton’s The Predicament of Belief: Science, Philosophy and Faith
* Monica A. Coleman’s Making a Way Out of No Way: A Womanist Theology
* Bruce Epperly’s Process Theology: A Guide for the Perplexed
I just finished Philip Clayton’s The Predicament of Belief: Science, Philosophy and Faith and found it to be a paragon of the pneumatological imagination. I wasn't impressed with the presentation of the anthropic arguments/principles and the so-called dilemma they might present at the beginning but the theodicy and divine agency discussions were some of the best and most accessible around (this side of a most excellent apophatic theology, anyway).
