trinity, creation and freedom Jensen, Alexander S. 1968- creator text bibliography Electronic books. enk 2014 2014 monographic eng 1 online resource (224 pages) Divine Providence and Human Agency develops an understanding of God and God's relation to creation that perceives God as sovereign over creation while, at the same time, allowing for a meaningful notion of human freedom. This book provides a bridge between contemporary approaches that emphasise human freedom, such as process theology and those influenced by it, and traditional theologies that stress divine omnipotence. This volume offers an important contribution to the debate of the doctrine of God in the context of an evolutionary universe.
