His works would also include many chapters in multi-author books such as The Openness of God while authoring many journals as a member of the Evangelical Theological Society. Possibly the most notable proponent of open theism is the late Clark Pinnock. Through his education and personal theological reflection, Pinnock moved from Calvinism to open theism.

Pinnock attended Victoria College at the University of Toronto with the intention of becoming a missionary. Later however, he earned a degree from Fuller Seminary and went to England to pursue doctoral studies at
