I’m so excited! I’ve really been needing this historical analysis. It will be helpful for the book I’ll be putting together, as well. Don’t worry, credit will be given where it is due!
Wow – that looks like an incredibly cool “next step” in the growing pile of evidence.
Eagerly await it!
Blessings GM/RP!!

Great, can’t to get a hold of this new read!!!
Guess what arrived this afternoon, hot off the press!!!
You guessed it, I’m now the proud owner of “All Shall Be Well”
It was actually for my dad’s Christmas present, but that seems too far away, so I’m thinking of giving it to him as a belated birthday present instead! That way, we’ll both get to read it sooner
Auggybendoggy, James Goetz or Jason Pratt, can we please add this to the “Materials we recommend as a Community”?
Sure!
Although, since you got it ahead of the rest of us, maybe you should add it (even moderate admin powers should work for that), so you can describe it better.
I’ll happily add it, I just wasn’t sure if I was allowed as technically it says
Excellent news
I like presents, even belated ones.
You can add “Alex” to that too, now. (That was the admin list.)
Wow, Alex is a mod? Good deal. That was quick.
And, this book is ready for ordering!? Oh, how I wish I had a job right now!
I am indeed
I got my copy the day before Robin so I was extra chuffed
Don’t see it on amazon at all. Where you guys finding it?

Tom:
It’s from Wipf and is ordered direct from them…
Here’s the link

Mine was mailed two days ago.
Probably won’t be able to get to it right away though. Too many things ahead of it to read…

I too got mine directly from the publisher, however, I do believe it will be available on Amazon in a few weeks/months. The publisher gives good discounts on multiples too, in case anyone wanted to know
It’s looking good so far. I read the chapter on Jaques Ellul to my wife last night, the von Balthasar section this morning, and am now dipping into Moltmann.
And it’s perfect weather for it.
A critical comment, but meant more as an observation than an argument. It does seem heavily weighted to the Modern Era.
We’ll have to ask Robin why he chose the people he did, when he gets back from his conferences in the US.
Personally, I assume that after the church condemned Origen for other things, universalism got unjustly tainted and it’s taken this long to get past that?? Anyway, being part of a remnant or minority for a little while doesn’t make it not true
In fact God seems to be inordinately fond of remnants (as well as beetles)
And remnant beetles…
Ahh! Yes - Paul and Ringo!
Yes, the reason why the modern era is weighted is simply that there are more universalists in the modern era. Very few between 5th C and 17th C (for reasons explained in the intro). If there was ever a second volume it would include Clement and a few other old guys but most universalist theologians are post-17th C.
