Developmental Theism: From Pure Will to Unbounded Love

by Peter Forrest

Overview

This is a work of speculative theology based on three themes: that a version of materialism is a help not a hindrance in philosophical theology; that God develops; and that this development is on the whole kenotic, in other words an abandonment of power.
