Current Book Selection
Our next book is an introduction to process theology - also known as neo-classical theology. The book is "God of Becoming and Relationship: the Dynamic Nature of Process Theology" by Rabbi Bradley Shavit Artson. Artson’s book was chosen for its simplicity, his personal stories, and helpful metaphors. Process theology gives fresh answers to a number of perplexing questions. It addresses the intensity of suffering in the world; the importance of beauty and meaning; the mutual necessity of science, religion, and art; the ecological crisis; how tradition and progress depend on each other; and more.
