"The only reason this is four stars and not five is that I would like something more scholarly. Fortunately Boyd is supposed to be coming out with a big three volume work in the not too distant future that provides just that."
"Controversial! The future is partially open to God. Boyd places an emphasis on the Biblical texts that speak of God changing his mind, or being grieved, or giving people options - and constructs a new theology of God - referred to as Open Theism or Neothism. In all fairness, Boyd does not give up God's sovereignty, but redefines it. His views have created a flurry of evangelical scholarship defending the traditional/classical view of God, even suggesting that Boyd's views fall outside of the pale of orthodoxy. While I remain unconvinced by Boyd's arguments, I find his emphasis on a God who seriously "interacts" (or "dances," to use one of his terms) stimulating."
