Calvinism and the Problem of Evil

My chapter, “Molinist Gunslingers: God and the Authorship of Sin,” was recently published in David E. Alexander and Daniel M. Johnson (eds.), Calvinism and the Problem of Evil (Wipf and Stock, 2016). That chapter grew out of a couple of conference presentations I made at the Molinism Study Group at ETS in 2010 and 2013, and was revised for publication. The contributors to the volume include:
