Open and Relational Theology and Its Social and Political Implications (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781958670125)

With its emphasis on relation over substance and possibility over predetermined endings, open and relational theology provides a way forward for both Muslims and Christians. This way, as "Open and Relational Theology and its Social and Political Implications: Muslim and Christian Perspectives" posits, aligns beautifully with important and ancient thinking from both traditions. Our world desperately needs "people of the book" to pursue cooperation over competition. Open and relational theology affords us that possibility. These essays were presented in their original forms at a conference hosted by the Center for Islamic Theology and the Center for Open and Relational Theology.

"As the dominance of substance-thought, with its inability to understand the central reality of relations, leads humanity to self-destruction, there has never been a greater need to recover the thinking associated with open and relational theology." -DR. JOHN B. COBB JR

"This is a work to help us define the God-human relationship as a relationship of freedom." -PROF. DR. MOUHANAD KHORCHIDE
