I like the way Adam Walker Cleaveland, the latest stop on the Coffeehouse Theology blog tour, shares his take on my book. He shows the diversity of perspectives out there on theology and culture, reminding us that no one book could ever do all of the possibilities justice:

“Ed also points out that the work of coffeehouse theology is never done. He says that “While the core beliefs at the center of our theology - at the center of our web of beliefs - might never change, we will always be open to change” (209). I think I might be more open to the fact that we should remain open to the possibility that even some core ideas should be re-formed if the Spirit leads us that way, but I still appreciate Ed’s openness to the possibility of change, or progression and allowing ourselves the freedom to follow the movement of the Spirit.

I appreciate the work that Ed is doing through his book, and I would recommend it to the right group of people. It wasn’t a book that I found especially enthralling, but I think it is a good introduction to the ideas of contextual theology and the way that we think about our thoughts of God.”
