- Summary:
- Influenced by philosophers Alfred North Whitehead and Charles Hartshorne and most significantly by the Christian theologian Schubert M. Ogden's process theology, Mason (theology, John Carroll U.) builds on their work in order to offer Christians ways of thinking about their faith and the role of Christian theology in responding to and understanding the contemporary world. He ranges across a broad array of Christian theological topics, but writes that the whole discussion is based on one simple premise, "that to be human at all is to live with an unshakable confidence in the meaning and worth of life."
