The Problem of God for Christian Systematic Theology with Schubert Ogden
Description
God is a serious problem... the problem in theology. Today you get to hear from an 89 year young legendary Philosopher of Religion - Schubert Ogden!
Schubert M. Ogden is University Distinguished Professor of Theology Emeritus at Perkins School of Theology at Southern Methodist University. As student of Charles Hartshorne and Rudolf Bultmann, he pioneered connections between existentialist and process philosophy. In this mini-lecture and conversation with Philip Clayton, Paul Capetz, and myself its gets seriously nerdy.
Here's the crazy thing - he has two new books that are written for a wide audience. In To Teach the Truth and To Preach the Truth Ogden shows just how flexible his pen is, writing to the people in the pews. If you want to experience his academic work check out the book I mentioned in podcast The Reality of God.
