I'm currently studying the open theism issue. The quickest way I know of to get up to speed is from reading and/or listening to debates (preferrably from degreed theologians). I am only aware of a couple of these. One is a book published In 2003 by Baker Academic called, Does God Have a Future?: On Divine
Providence which was a collection of email exchanges between Christopher Hall and John Sanders. In June 2002, the Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society published a few exchanges between John Sanders, Gregory A. Boyd, Clark Pinnock and Bruce A. And currently in progress at http://www.TheologyOnLine.com is a debate between Dr. Samuel Lamerson of Knox Theological Seminary and a pastor from Denver.

Those are the only debates I'm aware of (by degreed theologians) on the topic of open theism. If anyone knows of any others, please post them here. I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks a lot in advance.

This whole board!

Really, if someone could give you some of the good threads of old (assuming they were transfered over to this board from the old one), you'd have a ton of stuff to work with.

My teacher used to say that whenever he read Scripture, he would always ask the question, "What does this have to say about the character of God?" Working off his thinking, as I read Scripture, I have come to ask, "What does this have to say about the heart and passion of God's desire for relationship for us?

Hi Goriller-

There is no 'quick way' to get up to speed. Take your time and stroll through it all. Prayer a lot as you read. Talk to people.

THEN BECOME AN OPEN THEIST!
