In this book Paul O. Ingram adds his voice to a long list of
writers seeking to relate Christian tradition to the hard realities
of this post-Christian age of religious and secular pluralism. As a
Lutheran, Ingram thinks grace flows over this universe like a
waterfall. So he brings Christian mystical theology into a
discussion of the meaning of grace. Alfred North Whitehead's
philosophical vision provides a language that serves as a
hermeneutical bridge by which historians of religions can interpret
the teachings and practices of religious Ways other than their own
without falsification, and by which theologians can appropriate
history-of-religions research as a means of helping Christians
advance in their own faith journeys. The purpose of the journey of
faith is what Whitehead called "creative transformation." The
contemporary theological tradition that has most systematically and
coherently followed Whitehead's lead in its reflection on
non-Christian Ways is process theology, which is perhaps the only
liberal or progressive theological movement now active in the
twenty-first century.
