Subjects: God; Philosophical theology
Description: Ray L. Hart provides a radical speculative theology that profoundly challenges classical understandings of the divine. He contests the conclusions of numerous orthodoxies through a probing question - how can thinking of God reach closure when the subjects of creation are themselves unfinished, when God's self-revelation in history is ongoing, when the active manifestation of God is still occurring? Drawing on a lifetime of reading in philosophy and religious thought, he unfolds a vision of God perpetually in process - an unfinished God being self-created from nothingness.
