You Tube Theology

Welcome to episode fifteen of the Fortress Press Live podcast! In this episode, we speak with Oliver Crisp about his book, Deviant Calvinism: Broadening Reformed Theology. In this episode we cover the following topics: -Oliver's education background and current teaching role at Fuller Theological Seminary. -How did the idea for Deviant Calvinism get its start? -How are "Calvinism" and "Reformed Theology" defined in the book and what elements contribute to the word deviant in the book's title? -What are the core themes and problems focused on in the book? -What additional topics did quite make the cut for the book? -What if any correlation do you see between eternal justification and the Lutheran understanding of objective/subjective justification? -Doesn't the "God must display essential attributes in eternal judgment" (e.g. Holiness, righteousness) argument against universalism make God in His very nature dependent upon creation? -How does this correspond with orthodox understanding of God's self-sufficiency? -Who was the intended reader/audience you were writing for? -How might Deviant Calvinism be used in the classroom? Many thanks to Joshua Torrey (http://torreygazette.com) for reviewing Oliver's book and submitting questions for the interview.
