Hope and Uncertainty in Praying for Universal Salvation

The Universalism Booth is a series of interviews on Christian universalism, exploring several different angles from which the theological position is taken up. The interviewees range widely in their approaches to universalism, represented roughly as evangelical, existential, and Catholic.

Jordan Daniel Wood earned his PhD in historical theology from Boston College in 2019 and published a book with University of Notre Dame Press, The Whole Mystery of Christ: Creation as Incarnation in Maximus Confessor (2022). He was just recently appointed as Assistant Professor of Theology at Belmont University, to begin August 2024, but spent the past three years as a stay-at home dad of four.
