Description
Book SynopsisThe Storms of Providence surveys and critiques Calvinism, Arminianism, and Open Theism as models of the divine-world relationship. Further, the book defends a modified version of traditional Arminianism. The author contends that the most theologically and philosophically sound model of the divine-world relationship is one that affirms that human actions are free and not divinely determined, even while asserting that God has complete knowledge of the future.
Trade Review'The Storms of Providence' is a brief, informed, well-organized, and mostly clear entry into the discussion from an Arminian perspective. -- Dale Tuggy, SUNY Fredonia * Religious Studies *
