Many theologians have been reconceiving the God-world relation,
challenging the separation that underlay too much of Patristic and
Scholastic theology. These panentheists affirm a radical indwelling
of God within the world and the world within God. During the same
period scientists have begun to abandon the reductionist ideology
that characterized much of the modern period. Reductionism is being
replaced by a new emphasis on emergence: the study of how new
structures and entities arise throughout the evolutionary process
and how each requires its own form of explanation. Surprisingly few
theologians have recognized the paradigm shift represented by the
convergence of these two important schools of thought. Clayton's
pioneering work develops new models of God and the God-world
relation in light of panentheism and emergent complexity and models
an open-minded Christian theology that still respects tradition.
