John B. Cobb, Jr., now retired, taught theology at the Claremont School of Theology, cofounded the Center for Process Studies, and has been active in interfaith discussion. His books in that field include Christ in a Pluralistic Age and Beyond Dialogue, both available from Wipf and Stock Publishers.
This first effort at constructive Wesleyan theology to appear in United Methodist circles since the formation of the denomination in 1868 draws on the historical and literary work that has characterized Wesley studies in recent years. However, it moves beyond them to propose a way of reconstructing essential elements of Wesley's thought in service of the life and mission of United Methodists today.
