Jon Paul Sydnor is Professor of Theology and Religious Studies at Emmanuel College, theologian-in-residence at Grace Community Boston, and a podcaster at The Progressive Sacred. He studied at the University of Virginia, Princeton Theological Seminary, and Boston College, where he received his PhD. He practices theology in conversation with other religions, especially Hinduism and Buddhism, whose concept of nondualism has highly influenced the trinitarian theology of this book.
"""I love this book! Jon Paul Sydnor offers an open and agapic vision whose specifics I sometimes agreed with, sometimes disagreed with, and often learned something new. Thanks to it, I finally understand what Sydnor means by nonduality. But what I liked most was Sydnor's insistence on the centrality of love. This is a progressive Christian theology for the head and heart!"" --Thomas Jay Oord, author of Pluriform Love ""The Great Open Dance is a lucid testimony to a Christian faith that journeys through our world with its eyes wide open to all the good and bad around and within us. Jon Paul Sydnor brings a lifetime of learning, living, and loving to his reflections, yet he keeps his account light and inviting, accessible to a wide range of readers. His views on Christ, the church, and the faith are quite strong and pointed, but always presented with real charity, for the good of persons and communities of faith today."" --Francis X. Clooney, SJ, professor of divinity, Harvard University ""Engaging gender-expansive language, emergent understandings of the universe, vital inter-religious conversations, and the complex Christian theological inheritance, Jon Paul Sydnor presents a fresh, confident vision that will surely shape a generation of progressive Christian thinkers."" --Michelle Voss, professor of theology, Emmanuel College, Toronto School of Theology"
