Gott in seiner Geschichte: Vom Offenen Theismus angeregte Entwicklungslinien und Perspektiven einer relational-philosophischen Theologie

This study offers both a discourse-analytical and systematic engagement with Open Theism as a paradigmatic expression of a relational-theological movement. Proceeding from the thesis that God's being is fundamentally constituted by relationship, freedom, and temporality, the work reconstructs the genesis of Open Theism within the context of North American Evangelicalism and elucidates its implications for the philosophy of religion. In critical distinction from classical theism and in constructive proximity to process theology, it develops a vision of God shaped by the dynamic of trinitarian love. By engaging the context of German-speaking theology, key relational and freedom-theoretical motifs are further refined and extended. God's history with the world emerges as an open process of reciprocal freedom—a dramatic cooperative event unfolding within the testing ground of love, risk, and hope toward its eschatological horizon.
