House for Hope was the first attempt to use process theology to explain the possibilities of hope for our era. William Beardslee made a radical interpretation of Jesus Christ from the perspectives of Whiteheadian philosophy and panentheistic theology, all while being firmly based in the Judeo-Christian tradition. Here now in reprint, Beardslee’s way of restructuring our imagination continues to allow us to be both modern individuals and have hope.
William A. Beardslee was Professor and Chairman of the Department of Religion at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, from 1947-1983. Beardslee also served as Director of Process and Faith, a program of the Center for Process Studies, before his death in 2001.
