Summary

What if the death of God at the end of Modernity was stitched in the metaphysical assumptions from the outset? What if these assumptions can and should be challenged on scientific and philosophical grounds? What if these assumptions have been internalized, not just in the academy, but in the church? This are a few of the questions we talk about in the first have of this podcast. Then we end up covering the incarnation, prayer, divine action, the history of Israel, and the evolution of God among other things. John Cobb is the global leader of process theology and one of the greatest theological minds of the last fifty years. He is professor of theology emeritus at Claremont School of Theology in Claremont, California, and the cofounder of the Center for Process Studies. Tripp is in charge of his fan club - the #FANiacs. Cobb has published over 30 books so check them out.
