Process Theology
I was trying to explain to someone what Process Theology is about and why I like it and I couldn't. So I'm going to use this list and review it.
1. Every moment receives new possibilities offered by the God that loves us
2. We are co-creators with God
4. Evil is suffering/ loss/ destruction
5. The future is not pre-determined
6. We are human becomings
9. Reality is social - everything is interconnected and interdependent
10. God's presence is mediated through our interior sense, but also through other people, cultures, ideas and creation itself
11. Every moment your self should be:
a) receiving of otherness into the becoming self
b) integrating of this reception
c) giving of the self in influence to others over and over again
12. Spirituality is about this yearning for something more than ourselves
13. We don't have faith in Jesus, we have the faith of Jesus
14. God's power is shared, in God's presence and is relational
15. God is a relational God that is affected by our prayers, suffers with us and can be imitated
16. God is the Locus of Possibility
17. God is incarnate in each moment
18. The future is radically open
19. All past events are received into God and experienced by God
20. When we turn away from God's aim (which is to flourish), we narrow the options of what is possible for us
