For the egghead theologians out there, I've got a couple pieces you might be interested in.

One is an essay I wrote for the Assemblies of God regarding my views on open theism (which some time back got a lot of attention as the controversy to be debating). That essay can be found here: www.scribd.com/doc/23320973.

The second is my MTh thesis (University of Wales, 2007) which, strangely enough, is also about open theism. In it I try to develop an open view theology of prayer. And that can be found here: www.scribd.com/doc/23300607.

I'm not getting anything in the box where the thesis is supposed to show.

Dunno Stark. I just tried it and it worked. Weird.

Hey Tom,

I really liked your paper to the doctrine purity council of the Assemblies of God. I had a discussion about foreknowledge with my cousin-in-law on thanksgiving, he's the pastor of missions of a independent baptist church, and a somewhat hard-line Calvinist, so much so that he doubts that open theists worship the same God. It's good to know that the Assemblies of God church is (or was) keeping itself dogmatically neutral.

Thanks Daniel. I hope the neutrality continues. I think it will actually. I keep meeting more and more openness folk in the AG here.

Oh, I had to authorize one of Firefox's plugins to allow the site. I got it now.
